The Outdoor Endeavors

I was itching to go out of the house, do some of my own stuff. Not depend on some one for every thing. I chose the Saturday, 30th March, 18th Post Op day to do some of that.

It was more of a self confidence building.

What if the swelling, the bug in the surgery, does not have a fix ? Will I sit inside the house rest of my life ? I will accept an asymmetric face and still go out there as rest of the body and mind is just fine.

There is also a food pipe hanging from Nose. Some open stitches and staples on left hand and neck.

But sneaked out of house in the morning, with the driver. Went to the near by bank, and got a demand draft done for the school fees. Went to the school, stood in the line for close to 20 mins, before I could pay the fees and collect the receipt. Over all a 2hr 15 min, out in the city.


A lot of people did give the stare at the walking medical experiment. Some asked - "I Smiled and responded - accident" !

Wife was fuming mad at me for stepping out on my own even before the tubes are out and the stitches are out. Rightfully so, as body was in much more vulnerable state to pick up any infection from the crowd.

But it felt great to just get out and be able to do stuff that needed to be done any way.

The day that started with a bit of adventure ended with another Small Win. The doctor checked the internal healing and declared me fit to take food through mouth.

The last tube is gone !!
