ME
I'm guessing all of you must be wondering what's up in my life for the past month, what's been happening that has kept me away from my little journal space here; well first things first: JR GOT PAROLED!!! :D:D:D He got a FI-5R, so right now he's at Havins Unit starting on his IPTC program. I haven't heard from him since he moved, but based on what his mom says, he seems to have settled in just fine and is doing well in the program. His official start date is 8th August, and that makes his official end date 8th February. Whether he has to go to a halfway house or not after that is still up for review, but hopefully he doesn't have to and he can come straight home. We're looking at, earliest, a mid-Feb release, but no later than March. So we'll see how things go. God has blessed us greatly in this though, and we are truly very grateful for this blessing.
Another great blessing in my life this past month is that my dad, whose nose cancer recently relapsed, underwent successful surgery to remove the tumor in his ethmoid sinus, and for now his cancer is in remission. Aside from a bout of eye infection which occurred a couple of days after his surgery, my dad has since recovered fully, and is back to normal again. I'm very thankful for that, I'm very thankful that everything went well and my dad has recovered. So really, my two main worries this summer- Jr's parole and my dad's cancer- both ended in good outcomes, and I thank God for his blessings.
I had a wisdom tooth surgery today; my lower right wisdom tooth's been giving me problems over the past few weeks and so yesterday I went to see a dentist and today he scheduled me for a surgery. It went pretty alright, aside from eating difficulties and the constant swallowing of blood from the surgery wound, I'm feeling okay. The next few days will get worse before they get better though, so I'm mentally preparing myself for tomorrow. Wish me luck!
I'm going back to school in about 2 weeks time, I am NOT looking forward to it -.- Despite repeated attempts to slowly start back studying up, I have failed miserably in my noble idealism that I could actually muster the motivation to read anything remotely medical-related during the summer. I swear I'm on the pathway to becoming a med-school dropout. I'm not made of the stuff fine clinicians/para-clinicians/surgeons are made of. I'm a complete bum, lol. But time passes still, so I guess there's no point in me moaning and dreading what is inevitable. So HELL YEAH, I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE START OF THE NEW SEMESTER! Even though it's gonna be sucky.
I need to go buy my school books lol. I just remembered that, haha.
