I had my ear operation the day before last.  My eardrum and the bones in my ear had calsified.  Dr Nel het to cut away a big part of my eardrum.  Also some of the bone and rebuilt it.  He had to cut at the back of my ear.  From the top to the bottom of my ear.  I thought that it would be a "normal" operation, where he works through the ear canal.  It was extremely sore.

Tommie was so nice.  He was with me almost all the time.  Poor Jason got such a fright when he saw me the first time.  My head was covered with bandages and some blood had worked it's way through to the top layer of the bandage.  Can't blame the poor little thing.

It is still very sore and swollen.  Blood keeps on running out of my ear.  I'm wearing a beanie though (thankfully it is winter!)  I got discharged yesterday, and started working the same day.  Tax time.  My mom asked if I could go help my dad out, and just stayed almost all day.  Thank heavens for pain medication.
