I'm alive!

*Warning* Graphic images!

If you don't have the stomache for this you may not want to read and/or view.

I am having some discomfort but over all I'm doing better then I have the last 2.5 months. I'm a bit groggy and medicated. My face looks like a basketball from the swelling, my neck as well. The people there were awesome. They were litterally in shock that I wasn't nervous. Are you kidding, why should I have been? I've been waiting for this day far too long. They were alot faster then they expected to be which is great. Dr. Rinaldi Started the surgery at 10:30ish and was done in 2 hours. My recovery time was 45 minutes.

*PLEASE NOTE* After the next paragraph I will be posting the pics. I warned you so viewer beware!!!!!

It was the coolest thing ever! I was thrilled to be able to get pictures of it all. The first thing I told the nurse was, "This IS so cool, I'm going to post it on my blog!". She responded by, "Honey I don't think your friends are going to want to see it." I chuckled and then realized that she may be right; for some. BUT for me it was a HUGE deal. I am pleased to announce the pictures of relief! Thank you all for your prayers! Continue to pray for me as I am now waiting on results of the Biopsy.


1)This is when they began to pull out the fungus.






2)They were still removing it from my nose. It's this awesome! I LOVE this stuff! Some of the white stuff you there is bone and some are polyps. I LOVE this stuff!! Yes I repeated myself. lol!



3)Last picture, well not really I have a few more. I'll stop here though. This is the suinus that was filled with Fungus. It is now gone.



Mike calls this "The Thing".

The mushrooms have come to an end.
