Surgery

I'll start this off by saying that life for me has reached some sort of peak lately, but in the way that things keep getting better and better. It's been something that has been happening for the last few months, but lately things have been remarkably incredible.

I wish I could tell you more, but I wont, and you will just have to be content knowing that I'm incredibly happy with where I'm at right now. I really hope that I can remember these good times, especially when things get tougher and it becomes harder to remember that God is good and life is always an incredible experience that should never be taken for granted.

Anyways, amidst all of these countless amazing circumstances that have been happening lately, there's been this small looming dark spot, that being my surgery. Which is actually scheduled for today, being 12:30 am right now. I won't go into so much detail, but basically they will be cleaning out my sinuses of these weird growths I get called polyps. This will let me not get so many sinus infections all the time and have improved hearing and be able to smell! For the first time in five years! (if you did not already know this about me, I presently don't have a sense of smell because these polyps block it). The reason that this surgery is sort of considered a "small looming dark spot" to me is because there is a risk that I'll go blind or suffer some brain malfunction and become a vegetable for the rest of my life. But I've overcome that mostly, and I have faith in my surgeon. Especially since he's (successfully) done this operation on me three times already.

So anyways I've been imagining what things will be like with my ability to smell fully restored, and I think I expect life to be slightly more colorful and vibrant somehow. But who knows....I guess you do (if you can smell that is).

Anyways, I'll end this by saying a goodbye to my fellow anosmiacs! I travel somewhere that you cannot follow!

Goodnight! :)
