Surgery

I went to the doctor today and found out that I have 2 quite large tears in 2 different tendons in my ankle and an accessory bone embedded in one of the tendons. Therefore, I have to have surgery to repair the tendons and remove the accessory bone. I'm having the surgery on Tuesday, which means I'll be missing a decent amount of school, 10 days at the very least, but the doctor estimated that it'd be at least 3 weeks. I'm not to worried about the surgery. I had a tendon repair done on my other ankle 3 1/2 years ago and it wasn't too bad. I'm just worried about missing so much school.

I think this is basically the break from Xavier I've needed. This is pretty much mandatory. I'm pretty sure this is God screaming in my face so that I slow down. I think I'll end up coming back after Thanksgiving, but I really don't know. I'm young and in good health, so maybe I'll be back even earlier. Who knows? All I can do right now is pray for the success of the surgery and pray that my recovery time is the break I need. I guess we'll see how things go.

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. -Isaiah 41:10
