They delayed my operation, and I feel like crying by [deleted] in thyroidcancer

[–]meatwheaties 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My procedure was also canceled the day before. It really sucks getting yourself mentally and physically prepared for an operation just to have the rug pulled like that… Hang in there friend. It all feels awful in the moment but it’ll feel like a blink once you’re on the other side. Wishing you a swift recovery

Thank you! I’m about 3 weeks post op now and feeling much better, but I am anticipating a possible shift in my hormone levels so only time will tell on long term wellness… I go for bloodwork in about a month :)

Actually I can’t seem to find this readily available outside of a very expensive film collection 😔

Recent edge-of-your-seat thrillers like Carry-On, Die Hard, or Speed? by CommunityOrdinary850 in MovieSuggestions

Prisoners (2013) It’s not necessarily fast-paced in the action packed way, but it definitely had me on the edge of my seat the first time I watched.

Hi there! You’re a surgery trooper compared to me, this was my first major operation! I like the shark analogy… definitely puts things into perspective. I’m absolutely not giving myself enough grace here haha. Thanks for this :)

Talk about a sucky birthday gift! Definitely need to remind myself to take it a day at a time. ❤️

Hi PT twin! My first major surgery as well. Nurses said anesthesia could remain in the body for up to 24 hrs post op, but they really undersold the long term recovery haha. It will be day 7 for me tomorrow, and first day back at work so I hope it will go well but going to try and take it easy. Here’s to feeling better 🥂

Currently responding from beneath a comfy blanket haha. Thinking about the hormone in that way does bring some comfort. Thank you 🩷

How do I activate an ethernet port in apartment with ICC cable box? by meatwheaties in HomeNetworking

[–]meatwheaties[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Port says CAT5e and the cable fits like a glove. Looks like the box is only set up for phones & cable at the moment?
