Surgery #2 is on the calendar

I have a date for my next surgery and it is in about 2 1/2 weeks which is great because that means that I can get this over & done. And I know that if I have damage to my laryngeal nerve, it will get better and my voice will get back to normal like it is now. I have a pre-operative phone consultation with the nurse next week and a pre-operative in-person appointment with the surgeon also next week and then it is off to surgery from there. I already have a post-op appointment with the surgeon and I have requested an appointment with my Endocrinologist after the surgery so we can see how much we will need to bump up my thyroid medicine dosage. And I placed an order for a new beautiful scarf as a treat for surgery #2. I should also mention how great my husband has been through all of this. He has been really strong and kind and gentle and thoughtful. I could describe him that way on a normal day but through this, he has been exceptional - I feel loved and that I am really cared for. And if that isn't wonderful enough, after the first surgery he went out and bought me two beautiful Burberry scarves which are in the picture here. He did not even know at the time that I would be needing a second surgery - he just wanted me to have one for a warm day and another for a cool day. I will definitely be using them both a lot in the upcoming months. Lucky that I work in San Francisco because July is usually quite windy and cool so it won't be weird to be walking around with a scarf in the summer in this town. I'll post again in a few weeks after the next surgery.
