Re-Locked
It’s one of those days that a lot of things kind of happened in one shot, so here’s a little blog post. The night before, Master Pravus had locked me up into my steel collar, instead of putting my leather one back on me after my tubbie. He wanted to see if I could sleep in it okay, and I mean, I was eager too. Once he put it on my neck, we realized that the collar stops just shy of the stitch that we were worried about in the first place. (Heh). So I went to sleep with the collar on, and in the morning I hadn’t noticed a difference at all. Huzzah! And that means: collar stays. Much rejoicing was had!
Whether or not I was able to wear my steel collar, we did have plans to get my head shaved, and on top of that I wanted to film it. We had been shaving but not filming it while I had my PICC line in, because it had been too hard for me to move around in the studio, do makeup, etc. with only one arm. So I managed to get a video filmed. And my hair did. Huzzah X2! Also also I’m able to get my hydration hooked up and unhooked without any help now. So, all-in-all: this is good. Going in the right direction.
Research for surgery in another state is going alright. Not fabulous, but alright. Connecticut is out, it has to be New York. So right now we’re deciding between a bunch of Far Far Away places that I have zero familiarity with. Intimidating, no? >.> I would be intimidated no matter where I was traveling for an overnight surgery. But this? High up on my list of things I do not want to be doing. But it’s going to work out. It’s going to work out because it’s the Law. I have a couple people I’m calling in the morning. We’ll see how soon I can even get in. I can’t even imagine. This whole thing doesn’t even feel like it’s happening. Seven years from now, when I have to do this again (give or take) at least I’ll know where to go. This Whole thing is just. A THING.
That’s where I am. Locked in my steel collar again, and doing things. A few other balls are still kind of up in the air, but. I’m working on them. And I’m doing my best.
