Done and Done, then Done again.

I am done with my first 1/2 of didactic year.
I am done with exams.
I am done with surgery.

HALLELUJAH!

All went well. Exams were ok but a challenge and a constant adrenaline rush for a week. And the surgery was yesterday morning and all went well, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise because in closing the fistula between my nose and my mouth they were able to also free up a  lot of scar tissue and my upper lip, as puffy and swollen as it is, looks much better from the outside and has better range of movement! There was a little cyst something in the fistula that as the surgeon said was a "large pea, small grape size" that they sent off to pathology--I am sure it is just an epithelial cyst, but without that in my face things are going to look and feel better for sure!!

Anyway, I am laying low and enjoying Christmas now. I am getting ready to head back home to enjoy the holidays with the family--fat lip and all.
