Sounds scary.

I was sitting here just this morning thinking about my 1 yr check up yesterday. My Surgeon released me. I no longer need to see him. Anyway I was sitting here thinking, "What now? Am I at risk for anything now?"

Anyway, enough of my rambling. I hope you're recoving and all is behind you.

Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me."
