Woohoo! I'm back home after the operation, still in one piece! (well, mostly ;) )

I had the operation about 11:00 am on Wednesday as planned, went under the anaesthetic, and woke up ater with a splint kind of thing around my leg. Other than that, the rest of the day was highly un-eventful, and eventually I drifted in and out of sleep...

1 more week until the big operation! I've got Morrowind + 2 expansion packs for it to play on the laptop after surgery.

Now I'm used to the thought of I'm not going to camp, and that I won't be at school for at least until the end of the week after the op. 6-8 week recovery time I believe they said, and 2-3 days in...

Why did I make this blog?

Well, sometimes it feels lonely when no-one else is like you. I don't know a single hemiplegic person, nor someone as smart as me (except for 1 person). It's easier to talk about hemiplegia freely when you are in a community who understand what it's like.
