    This week was crazy. I had GRS last week. Wtf? It actually happened. Up until the last hours I was convinced something would still go wrong, but then it just happened. And now I’m a week into recovery and doing really well! The first few days were very hazy and I barely did anything other than doze and scroll Instagram a bit. I’m lucky to have a lot of people visit me which has made the harder days more bearable and since Thursday, I’ve been feeling better almost every day! Today I finished the first of the four books I took for recovery (I Who Have Never Known Men) and loved it. I’ll probably leave the hospital on Thursday which gives me three more days of chilling out and just regaining my strength. But honestly, I already feel better than expected. I can walk fine, reading and concentration are up again and spirits are up as well. Very tough, but good week!
