Jimminy crickets
Wow. Some panties are up in a bunch.
Yeah, I’m the one who counts lots of people with major modifications as good friends of mine…and I defend my right to have a completely opposite opinion from what someone else may have about it. Yes, I do reccommend therapy as a possible alternative to a major modification, or at least not an afterthought. But not always a necessity, as the men I count in my circle of friends have obviously thought long and hard about the things and transformations they have undergone. But I still wholeheartedly believe that posting a surgical procedure up is almost condoning its practice…and that body modification artists should not be doing it…
But whatever. If you counted yourself as at one point my friend and decided that what I wrote was not favorable…don’t take it personally. This was not about attacking individuals but about the whole “surgery as art” idea.
And yeah…I’m alive. Three surgeries and one major stroke right after the open heart…with one more discovered on the MRI. And I am still here to tell it…and I am doing really really well. My face was paralyzed for half a day but no permanent aspect of my brain was negatively affected.
The Open heart was on April 22nd. The stroke on April 23rd. I have been staggering my re-employment for the past few weeks and next week is my first full time week back.
I came back here to let a bunch of you know I was ok. I am not dead. I also have another site I do write on. And yeah, I can act like an angry American on it…but not for the reasons I was called insane and Angry today. I am pretty vigilant politically..the current administration might be a sign of the end of times…but you need to read it to understand.
If you want a link to it, please hit me up here. And thank you so much to all of my old school buddies for being worried. And for their prayers. The surgeons thought I was not going to make it after the stroke (which caused massive seizures I am on dilantin for). But I did. And I love you all for caring.
Be well. This might be my last post for a long time…:HEART
