There's always a first time

It began at 8.50am, and I recall seeing with my blurry vision the clock that hung on the wall right before I as pushed into the surgical operation theatre. I was given sedation and was spoken to and asked a few questions. Commented as a young patient for this sort of surgery. Perhaps I am taking pre-emptive measure...

I don't like injections, but had to be poked on my left hand right before the fingers in order for the sedation to work. Surprisingly, I don't know how they do it to make my eyes area numb though it was injected via my hand. Science is weird.

Anyway, drifted in and out of sleep and could feel the doctor and his assistants talking, discussing, gossiping, and well, snipping the flesh on my eyelids. Yes, the snipping of the surgical scissors... *snip snip snip* freaky i know but true. after some time (god knows how long) I heard 'ok, stictch up'...

and I was transferred from the operating table on the push-bed or whatever you call that and transferred to the recovery suite... where I was given porridge and tea (my choice)... well, they switched off the lights, placed some cool pads for my eyes to aid the healing process against swelling. Well, i took some photos but well, since they are potentially disturbing, Well, perhaps next time I'll post it up.

We'll see. In the meantime, I'll be staying at home. Please do not visit me at my place as I really do not wish to face the world in this state. you can always entertain me by sms or email. I should be limiting my time spent in front of the computer as well. too bad I won't be able to see the splendour of the fireworks this year. Well, hearing beats nothing right? hmm, anyway, had to walk around the house with half of what I have with my eyes...

Definitely, it was some kinda experience to be pushed into the surgery. I think I remember last night having consisitently images and vision of the surgery during my sleep even though I tried to sleep late in order to fall into deep sleep sooner. Didn't work.

alright, just a post for you guys out there who are concerned.

Thanks. Concern appreciated.
