If you haven't heard, I am now back to work part-time. Today begins the 3rd week of my return & I'm so happy to be back! My co-peeps are the best! They have welcomed me back with 'open arms' and continue to support me while respecting my space down on Level 2. But get this! My colleagues have donated HUNDREDS upon HUNDREDS of hours of their personal vacation time allowing me to continue my recovery without having to worry about whether or not I'd receive a paycheck. And even as I write this now, I can't help but get ridiculously emotional. It's just so unbelievable...I love you all. I told you I had the best co-peeps! I thank each one of you from the bottom of my heart for your selfless generosity & support.
As for my current status, I am doing well. The only thing that continues to bother me are my eyes and my thirst. Looking at a monitor for about 20 min at a time is just about all I can take right now. I get dizzy if I get too crazy on the computer so I make sure to keep it to a minimum. That would be why you haven't seen too many entries here. Also, I haven't had any migraines since the 2nd surgery (Yay!) Just a couple minor headaches. The thirst problem, I've been told by my endo, could possibly remain for the rest of my life. A pain in the butt, but a small price to pay for what I've been through. I've learned to actually listen to my body these days and rest like I should & I thank God every day.
It's been quite a journey thus far. And if there's anything that I've learned in the past 6 months, it's true love, true friendship and serious appreciation. There are so many people that have given so much to my family, Melia & I...school friends, sport friends, new friends, old friends, family. There is not a day that goes by that I wonder, "how can I possibly thank each and everyone of you for all you have done for us?" Thank you, thank you, thank you! BIG hugs & kisses!
