All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go... HOME!

It's great to be discharged from the hospital today. I'd still be continuing rehab (NOT 'drug' rehab but a rehab for people with broken bones and weak muscles, hehe - people freak out when I send them a message of me being in a 'rehab') but I'll be having it back in Boston. I haven't seen Meia in a long time and I haven't gone online except through my handy-dandy mobile phone. But yeah, going home feels nice. A breath of fresh air, guilt foods, and seeing again crazy friends. Not bad, eh?

My arm still has stitches and screws but I can twitch my fingers now. Doing really better compared to before. For a while, I thought they were going to amputate my arm. There's still swelling and my fingernails are somewhat bluish, but the doctor said that it's perfectly fine and it will go back to how it was before. Again, for readers of F&L and VC who sent their get well messages, thank you so much. The hundreds of emails really warmed my heart and I can't help but go 'wow, there's a God that loves me!' along with all the concerned people.

In line with this, expect an update for F&L soon. I'd go to it once I arrive in Boston. No promises about the exact date of posting though. It's going to be doubly hard doing the [TAG]s with only my left hand working on the mouse and the keys, so thank you so much for your understanding and patience.

Sliced arm and back again

I'm now three days post-surgery and it feels good now that the anesthetic has worn off with all my arm's numbness alleviated. Still hurts, but not as much as before and now I can move my fingers again. Big thanks to Dr. Young and co. of the orthopedic dept here in Michigan and of course Dondon, my physical therapist. He's a crazy Naruto and Bleach fan like me, so we get along well.

I'm making this blog via mobile phone by the way. But hey, I can hold my phone again with my right but with the metal still attached to my bone, still lots of recovering to do. Thank God the big thorny road has been passed by. Will take me a long time to go back to basketball and PS2 but I'm pretty excited to go back to writing... not in a few more days, but getting there.

Regarding the unposted chapter 57, sorry for not posting it in the day promised. It's because Meia is in Florida right now. She hadn't dropped by to Bayback so she hasn't gotten hold of my laptop with the Chapter 57 word .doc yet. Things are pretty crazy right now, so thank you very much for your patience. Life's getting in the brain-frying way too much hehe.

Thank you for all the get well soon messages and prayers. I'm getting well and doing good. Just a little bit of rest and I'd be back with Vena Cava and Fists and Lipsticks soon. Again, thanks for your care and patience.
