Yesterday marks two months since I had the surgery. It seems like so much longer ago. With the recovery, returning to work, and then the holidays, the time has flown by. This is an interesting time. That post-surgery grace period has ended. Work is busy with the usual flurry of activities and short deadlines and life outside of work is back to as normal as I can make it. I'm still not feeling great but I think/hope that will pass. People tell me it takes a long time. And some of that might just be this $%&*@ cold. It seems to be going away slowly but I'm still really sore from the coughing.
OK, enough of the complaining. It's the start of a new week and the first full work week of the new year. Time to make the best of those landmarks.
About this blog
I had a lung carcinoid tumor. It was removed, along with the lower and middle lobes of my right lung, on November 6, 2007. This is a slow growing form of a malignant tumor. I considered the title "malignant me" but that seemed too negative. I locked in on "Not by myself" since that captured how I have felt during this whole, long run. I have set up this blog for people who want to know how things are going. I'll update it regularly, I hope. I'll probably be posting all sorts of things in here.
