Sorry for being absent. I haven't been able to use the computer for a while bc bad pain, and being confined to bed, except for grueling excursions to distant locales like the bathroom and the fridge.

I am so ready for my new body.

@S_thyrsoidea I hope you feel better, new bodies all around

@Exiled_Sentinel Thanks. Tomorrow I see a new doctor, which ironically ha ha ha will probably fuck me deeply up because medical specialties that treat people with mobility problems often are remarkably physically inaccessible to people with mobility problems. I looked over the check-in procedure, and I think it's hilarious they expect me to stand in line.

We have a plan, though. We're bringing my yoga mat and a back pillow & I will lay down on the floor as necessary & probably freak them out.

@S_thyrsoidea Hey, freaking them out is a good thing. Shouldn't make you stand. I hope everything goes well, though

@Exiled_Sentinel There was much freaking out! I got to have this dialog several times:

"😲 Are you okay?!"

"No, not even a little."

It went pretty great! I am booked for a procedure very soon and they decided ~for some reason~ the follow-up appointment can be a telehealth visit. 😀

@S_thyrsoidea HA, glad you freaked them out!

I'm also glad it went ok, and you got your procedure scheduled. I know medical systems can be absolute hell, so I'm glad it all went through.
