It has been two weeks exactly since I went under the knife. In some ways it feels like it has been so much longer and in other ways it feels like it was just yesterday. I am definitely doing better than I have been in my last few posts. I'd say 75% of the time I'm doing pretty well and 25% of the time I'm fighting of bouts of discouragement.

The rash is starting to clear up because I removed every last bit of tape. The wound, however has gotten worse - I'm thinking because it has been more exposed...and because the staples need to come out. My friends, family and readers have been super supportive and I've never felt so loved.
