I had surgery last week to hopefully change my life for the better. For the last year I have tried a bunch of different ways to reverse the problem without surgery to no avail. Last month I went to a birthday party where I happened to meet a doctor that specialized in sleep apnea related surgery. Less than 4 weeks later I was off to Cedar’s to have a bunch of my insides taken from me including my uvula, tonsils, adenoids, soft pallet and since he was already in there, he corrected my deviated septum. Dr. Nick named it the blue plate special…
Alexi came along to take care of me. Little did she know she would be stuck in a hospital chair for 30 plus hours as I puked blood after they woke me up. “Your body didn’t agree with the anesthesia and your stomach can’t digest all the blood, just try to sleep through this.”
48 hours post surgery I remember that I was supposed to be taking pictures…
Some of what was taken from me.
I wasn’t the only one wanting to document an adventure.
In hindsight I’m so bummed I didn’t get more photos, my face and neck were so much more swallen than the photos show.
Cedar’s is down with the Jews and so am I.
Max Factor is a different story though…
After to putting in 30 hours sitting in a chair next to me, Alexi got a bed of her own. The most expensive hotel room I have ever stayed in and we slept in separate beds.
On my way home.
I hope this works.
