....In fact can I just skip the next two weeks?!?
I have been making up excuses and ways to get out of my Tonsillectomy tomorrow ever since I scheduled it on Monday... That's right I said Tonsillectomy. To say that I am scared would be an understatement. Terrified? Mortified...?? Yes, those are much more fitting.
I have never had surgery. I have never had anesthesia. No stitches. No drugs (lortab, percocet, etc.). I have never even been a patient in the hospital! In fact I can probably count on one hand how many times I've visited a hospital!
I hate needles, blood, protruding objects, swallowing pills, drugs, doctors, hospitals, and pretty much anything medical (oh and Dentists too). Plus I love food way too much...
The long story short is that I started to have minor tonsil caused issues the past year or so including tonsil stones and occasional sore throats. I finally went into a specialists who told me that since I'm young I should just get them out. At the time, I completely refused that option and couldn't justify such a drastic solution for occasional mild sore throats. I still actually have a very hard time justifying it (hence all the excuses this week), but it's to the point that I get at least one sore throat daily and now really is the best and only time to do it - while I'm jobless, childless and young... less?
Anyway, I am doing it up in Logan since that was the quickest way to get it done. It'll be an early morning since the surgery is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. I'm pretty sure I'll be passed out before they even get the IV in me.
Well wish me luck!! I sure am going to need it. I'll keep you all posted. Don't worry I'll spare you the dirty details :)
