Post-Op.

Update from my cell phone: I had my surgery today - an interesting way to start my 28th year! - and it went really well. My mom is by my side, being such an incredible support, and I'm not even in that much pain. (Then, on the other hand, I'm not sure the anesthesia has worn off completely yet...)

Thank you all for your lovely birthday wishes, they mean the world to me!

Love,
Annika

  2. I just realised that I did the same as you some years ago. I laid down on the operating table on my birthday to remove a melanoma from my back. I was awake during the procedure and had the pleasure (?) of hearing the surgeon exclaiming: "This has to be the toughest skin in Northern Europe – the needles won't go through it!"
    Today it's only a big scar (which doesn't bother me), and I hope that you will heal as quickly as I did.
    Get well and hug the cats!

  7. Oh goodness, I missed that surgery reference (I don't know how I could've. I have issues with my cervix area as well. If it's not too personal to ask, what kind of surgery was it? If it is, no worries at all!) I wish you the absolute best in recovery. I'll be going under the knife myself on Thursday. Stupid jawbone....here's to being loopy from sedation!

  11. Annika, good to see you are doing well! I completely missed the surgery reference you made, so if you don't mind, what was the surgery for? I was very nervous for a surgery I was supposed to have but I didn't since they said surgery is difficult for someone as young as me in the area of trouble. I hope you heal soon! I love you and your blog!

  26. I'm so with Jeenee on this one.

    Jag vet inte hur pass påfrestande återhämtningsperioden kan vara i sådana här fall, men jag hoppas att den åtminstone är så pass hygglig att du kan spendera dina kommande dagar nedbäddad i soffan, framför otaliga avsnitt av Grey's Anatomy eller Glee eller kanske till och med The Singing Detective. Sådana dagar är guld värda när man inte är hundra procent. I vilket fall som helst: Get well, Annika.

  27. Hey Annika! So you also had a surgery? Same here, haha! Recovery sucks, but hopefully yours will be much better than mine so far. Also, Happy Birthday to you and it's always great to have your family with you while your recovering :)
