New life

Well....lot´s of stuff has happened since March! During April my back was still hurting like hell, but I had come to terms with an operation not until October. But then they suddenly called from the hospital April 20th and asked if I wanted to come in four days later. They had got a cancellation from another patient. After two minutes I said yes.

The following Monday I went to the hospital. I got a nice room at the hospital hotel, and in the afternoon the surgeon came to visit and to talk about the operation. He still seemed like a nice guy. The next day I went to the operation floor, where I waited a few hours. Just before 11 am they came and told me that it was my turn. So I walked into the operation room, laid down on the table and got some heavy drugs...

I just remember that they told me that now I could sleep. And I did.

The morphin sleep was abfab, and when they tried to wake me three hours later, I didn´t want to. I slept more or less the whole afternoon, until the surgeon came back to me around 7 pm and told me about the operation. Everything seemed fine, and he had picked out my troubling disc.

The following night was kinda hurtful, but I managed with a lot of drugs. At one point I thought I would scratch myself to blood, but they said it was the reaction when the morphine is leaving the body.

The next morning I walked all by myselft to the toilet, and in the afternoon I went home!
