A Walkthrough of My Surgery

DISCLAIMER...Everything here is absolutely true..Read at your OWN risk...


Feb 9th 2010 - It begins...

8.30 am - In my suite -
A guy comes with a shaving set and says he wants to do "preparation"..That's what they call it...I started to lie on my stomach but then he told no it's to be
completely from the navel till the knees..
Ok fine.. So for the first time in my life, i am lying in my birth
suit in front of another person.. That too.. A guy..well what to do..
:-)

10.30 am - In my suite -
nurse comes in and gives me a gown that is completely open in the back
with only some strings.. Something similiar to what Shreya wore in
Shivaji..

11.00 am - In the pre-op room -
i am lying there in the gown and they tell me the surgery will be only
in the afternoon.. So a beautiful nurse comes by and asks me
questions.. And then she asks if "preparation" is done.. I say yes..
Does she believe me..Of course not.. She lifts up my gown and sees for
herself..After some time two nurses comes and repeat the entire
procedure.. I told them too i am prepared.. But they want to see for
themselves.. Ok fine.. What do i care.. :-)

3.30 pm - In the operation theatre -
there are six people.. One guy and 5 gals.. So the senior doc asks me
should they give me a general anesthetic or a spinal one.. I
remembered a dialogue from "House"( for those who don't know House is
a medical serial) and i said do what you think is best for me in the
current situation.. They said spinal.. I also thought if i am awake i
can see what is happening..
for the spinal they have to give an injection in the spinal cord.. I
was bent on my side and they tried to inject.. But it kept striking
the bone.. It was so painful.. After 13 injections on the 14 try they
got through to the spinal cord..
I was paralysed from waist down.. I could just feel the touching..
They then removed the cloth completely.. So i was lying stark naked in
front of 6 people.. They asked me where is the problem.. I told them
it's in the coccyx region..I was talkin with them asking doubts about
various machines and procedures.. Actually due to my guestions a nurse
had asked me whether i am working as a nurse.:-) ..Then the main
surgeon came and started hacking away..i was awake the whole time.. It
was awesome..

5.00 pm - In the post-op room -
here nothing much happened.. I kept trying to move my legs.. I could
feel them moving.. But when i look down they are not moving.. I was
then asked to pee in a bottle.. I then slept peacefully..


Feb 10th 2010 - the next day...

10.00 - In my suite -
i was brought back safely... :-)

That's all folks.. It seems that by pain endurance levels have
increased tremendously.. Probably due to watching all parts of SAW
:-) ..

Thank u for your kind attention...

The Looking Glass

Unabridged... Might be a tad explicit for some!!!

Getting a man to love you is easy
Only be honest about your wants as
Woman. Stand nude before the glass with him
So that he sees himself the stronger one
And believes it so, and you so much more
Softer, younger, lovelier. Admit your
Admiration. Notice the perfection
Of his limbs, his eyes reddening under
The shower, the shy walk across the bathroom floor,
Dropping towels, and the jerky way he
Urinates. All the fond details that make
Him male and your only man. Gift him all,
Gift him what makes you woman, the scent of
Long hair, the musk of sweat between the breasts,
The warm shock of menstrual blood, and all your
Endless female hungers. Oh yes, getting
A man to love is easy, but living
Without him afterwards may have to be
Faced. A living without life when you move
Around, meeting strangers, with your eyes that
Gave up their search, with ears that hear only
His last voice calling out your name and your
Body which once under his touch had gleamed
Like burnished brass, now drab and destitute.
