Hi guys, just wanted to tell you you're evidently liking me way too much on here, lol - I just noticed the number of Likes for my account have now surpassed the number of my Posts here in the forum, although this post will even them back up at 2,138. I'm really glad I have a place I can hang out and share anime thoughts with everyone, even worldwide, from here in the US, and I want to thank everyone for welcoming me into this forum. 🤗
I'm now at home after 11 days in the University of Pennsylvania hospital in Philadelphia for pancreatic cancer surgery; they performed a Whipple procedure and while they were at it they also removed an umbilical hernia at my belly button that was getting close to tennis ball in size. I now have a 12" incision running down the center of my belly, so I'm not a pretty sight with my shirt off, lol. I don't have a belly button anymore because of the hernia removal, so now I'll have proof to show people that I was hatched instead of birthed, haha! I am now in recovery mode, slowly feeling a little bit better every day. I have to give myself 7 shots a day in the leg, with blood thinners and insulin, for the next 30 days, ugh! Can't wait to get over all this and get back to my normal routine. Again, thank you for all the good wishes from everyone on here with my surgery and recovery - I'm glad I'm at least now able to get back on the anime forums! 😌
