The surgery

The lump in my neck is finally removed. Doc says it was bigger than he expected and also expects it to be tuberculoid. Am a bit tensed about that. Earlier I thought that it would be either TB or the surgery, now it turns out that it would well be diagnosed TB after the surgery! Scary, considering the fact that its already a tumor, I could well be in the second stage of it. Not that it is not curable and all, but that would be a huge impact on the way others would look at me especially my family, which now includes fawdi.
Fawdi is here with me now. Was with me for the surgery and I could see the tension in her eyes. Probably she was more tensed than anywone else about this whole thing. She still is. I can see pain in her eyes whenever I have a slight pull on my neck. Am thinking am so lucky to have her around me. :) She will be here for another 2 days.
And my friends and people around me.. its so nice to feel so cared. Meghana, Gopal, Sriram, Arun, my roommates and all the people who know me.. care so much. Gopal almost like my dad or an older brother. Mehgana, as concerned as my sister would be. Sriram, Arun and other roommates like solid supports. :) must have done something very good in my previous life ( Am sure i did not do anything good in this one ;)) to have all these nice people around.
