I use to get nervous when I received a window envelope in the mail as it usually meant that a bill had arrived.  But these days I dread the opening of mail as it usually means a hospital visit or some type of procedure involving needles.  And today was no exception.

I have survived another long stay in hospital and I’ve been getting back on my feet.  Today was actually a good day with me managing nearly a full day in the office.  But tonight I opened a window envelope and there it was in black and white.  My next surgery.  I knew it was going to happen, I just didn’t know when.  But now I do.
