I will just come out and say it. I am having surgery on my knee. It will be done the day after Christmas. Merry Fucking Christmas. Do you know this means? I can not drink on Christmas Day Who the fuck stays sober on Christmas, I mean seriously!!
All kidding aside, I am scared. Not of the pain, not of the recovery, I really don't know why, I just am. Noah had been through major surgeries, so I won't even compare, because you can't. I guess there is always the thought that something will go wrong, I don't know. I am sure everything will be okay, but now I am going to stress about medical bills. I really don't feel like I need anymore stress, but hey, I guess I have no choice!
I was honestly thinking that I would go to the doctor and he would give me some exercises to do, or give me a prescription for some cream to put on it or something. Thank God my Uncle Mike went with me. Yes, co-dependent Heather had an escort to the doctors today....bite me! I am just glad he was there, I felt calmer just having him with me. Gabe said he feels like a horses ass now because he didn't go. Neither one of us anticipated this outcome though, so I know he would have been there if he thought they were going to tell me I was having surgery. I guess my knee cap isn't in the right place, so they have to move something and put some screws in my bones, I don't know, I just kind of cringed when he was explaining all of it. The good news is that my knee cap will no longer pop out of place, causing me intense pain when putting it back. That alone will make it all worth it.
I am sad about my long, slender legs having scars on them though. I mean really, when I am walking down the runway in a fashion show, I hope people will not pay attention to my gross disformaty. Hopefully they will concentrate on my unusually large hobbit feet instead. I kid of course, I am not runway material.
Gabe did tell me he would have a Beto's burrito waiting for me post-op, as well as Raj's Chicken after I am in my hospital room. Now that ladies in gentlemen is what I like to call....LOVE!!
