Bakas

Bakas in the Filipino language means print, mark, trace, trail or vestige. This blog, then, records all those that left their marks or my impressions on anything under the sun :)

Dios ti agngina

Muchas gracias, xiexie ni, merci beaucoup mes amis.

Thank you (in different languages) for all your encouragements, text
messages, emails, gifts, visits, and most importantly, prayers.

I got out of De los Santos Medical Center in the afternoon of Maundy
Thursday. I had to wait for my doctor to give my medications and to
set our next meeting.

This Wednesday is my first day without any medication, meaning pain
reliever and antibiotic. I also feel more normal than the past days.
Other than a nerve still hurting from the dextrose inserted on my
left hand, a few moments when I feel cold and shake from sudden
weakness, and a lower abdomen that feels like it has been sunburned, I
am fine.

My doctor had to remove my left ovary. I must have already accepted
it even before the operation as I don't feel sad about it. My mother
had a harder time -- not knowing how to answer me -- when I asked her
which was removed, the cyst or the ovary. Prior to the operation, I
told her to stay by the operating room as she would need to speak for
me while I was happily out from relaxant and anesthesia. My doctor
warned me earlier that this would be a more difficult operation since
it's a recurrence. The gory details of my hospital stay could be a
subject in my blog :)

Before I went to the hospital, I attended a Palm Sunday mass in Bacood
and asked our parish priest to bless me. I also told the Lord, "I'll
see you here on Thursday." :)

So, I met with the Lord, last Thursday afternoon's mass, up on my feet :)
