Holidays are here! I really should go Christmas shopping today, but we'll see how that goes.
Anyhow, James' visit was wonderful and we both had a lot of fun. (I hope. X3) Thanksgiving was great, but I was a bit miffed that there wasn't any cheesecake this year since it's my favorite. That and no virgin, sparkling, apple cider. But eggnog was served, and that was good too. X3
In more recent and sad news, I went to the dermatologist on thursday, two days ago, and had skin on my hip punched out and stitched, with a quarter sized piece of flesh carved out from my lower back as well. They're going to test me for skin cancer, but I hope they don't find anything... I don't know what it would mean if they did, but I'm afraid to find out.
That and my scoliosis, while only noticable if you know what to look for (as well as being an un-braceable King V pattern), is still curving, and the doctors say it's bad enough that I could request a spine operation to have it all corrected. The three curves are serious, with the middle one being over 45 degrees, and it hurts only a little, but it's painful all the time now.
The operation has a possible chance of turning me into a quadriplegic.
Not a good thing.
I'm not sure what to do except hope it won't advance any further. I don't really fancy turning into a snakey, squished diseased thing or to become completely dysfunctional from the neck down...

And sorry to hear about the cancer testing procedure. Love you hun, and I'd kiss your boo boos all better if I could.
Yikes on the back thing. Surgery would probably be a good idea if it progresses further. My mom's had a few surgeries on her back and spine really, though I don't remember what the reasons for some of them were.
Love you, Mia.
