Turtles

I'm all sensitive now, I tried to save a turtle that was crossing the street the other day, but I was about thirty seconds too late. He got mashed. I'd like to think my odds are better than his were.

I'm doing allright, my operation was yesterday so today I'm at home, walking around like an old man. I'll probably be back to normal in a few days. Upon further reading and the actual experience, it doesn't look like I'll be any different emotionally just because I'm different physically. I was curious about meeting a more relaxed and less hairy version of me, but apparently you need to lose both testicles for changes like that to happen. I'm unique, not eunuch.

I go in for a catscan tomorrow but the big appointment is Thursday 9/9. The pathology on the tumor will be done then and I'll find out what stage I'm at. We're rooting for stage I, where nothing has spread and they just do blood tests for the next couple of years, but I'm reading up on treatment and getting ready for anything.
