it's good to be home

Yes, I'm back home from the hospital stay today. Joyce and Fiona were really sweet to arrange a lunch on Friday before my surgery on Tuesday. I was able to satisfy my craving for "char kway teow".. we had the Penang version near Coronation Plaza.

Musketeer bp was laughing so hard at the hospital tales which I told him that he said my week was more exciting than his. Well, the surgery was a success. Only thing was that the tumours have to stay. Boohoo.

I have to get used to having this new *ahem* "branded bag" and a new lifestyle.

short update

Upon Dr See's suggestion, brought forward my appointment with Dr Tang. As the disease has progressed and the tumours have grown, Dr Tang felt it is in my interest to have that stoma surgery. It should provide some relief for me.

Surgery is on Wednesday, expected stay in hospital is 5-8 days. I would prefer no visitation.
