Side Comment

So, somethings in life are so striking, that they are worthy of comment.
If not analysis!

For the whole of my life,
Mother has been a looney-toon!
And not in a nice way.

So I grew up surrounded by mental illness.
The delusions,
The long screaming sessions,
The wrong or skewed understanding of everything!

Her agony is gut wrenching.
But she can not change!
And she can not understand ,,,
And refuses any and all medications!

Now, a about two months ago mother went back to her /Mormon roots.

Just another bad idea on her part.
And since her choice to convert back,
She has been utterly normal!

Don't ask me!
I am at a loss as to why.
Unless her mental illness was really demonic!
Which has been my thought since her first fit  in 1966!

But it is nice dealing with someone with all of their marbles ...
For a change!

T Minus 11 (Days!)

So, eleven days ago, I presented myself at the hospital for surgery.
And they stumbled!

The anesthesia guy hit me with something called gabapenton, a non narcotic pain killer and I went into a coma like state!

I came to, two days later very unhappy to find that no surgery occurred!
They thought they had killed me!

Also a nurse screwed up and gave me a drug I am allergic to.
It was even in my chart data!
And that cost me ten days to recover from!
So now going through the long process of being re-certificated for surgery.

I wish this was OVER!!
