Delighted or negative feelings?
Should I be delighted or worry myself after today?
Today I went for my doctor appointment and well, he answer in a very politicially way for the pain on my ankle.
He asked me whether do I still feel e original pain in my ankle, i said no. Then what pain do i have not? I pointed him about the areas that i feel the pain.
He replied, that's good. Since the original pain is gone, that operation is successful. While the pain you having now are the operation pain, it will recover soon. He noted that recovery rate for bone injury is much faster than tendon/ligament injury.
The latter is 3 to 6 months time. Oh yeah, the next appointment is 3 mths time so add together from the operation, i will have a 6 mths period of recovery.
He added, i can have my normal life back, go out work etc..yeah i am happy that he said that but kinda have this worrying mindset that why do i still have this pain. Cannot blame me that I do not really trust the doctor after the exp i had.
Really, I don't wish to have any operations already. I had enough..I hope my ankle can just recover and i will walk with a good pair of legs.
Oh I bought a $85 ankle brace, damn ex right but it helps alot.
It come to my mind that, if an optimistic guy will take the news happily while on the other hand a pessimistic guy will take the negative news gravely.
So what am I?
haha...no choice this is my 2nd operation after all. I need to smile at it !
God bless me!

Saw this at msn just now!
Could you stop spending for a month?
That sense of empowerment infused many participants' appraisal of their experiences. Even those who fell off the wagon early and often -- like Nicole, who had to move unexpectedly during the month -- said the experiment taught them that they usually have options to spending money.
"I think what I've learned can only help me in the future," wrote Nicole, who lives near Washington, D.C. "That if I decide to do something, I can do it, and that I can make do with what I've got."
Falling off the wagon Most of us, by the way, couldn't get through the whole month without an unnecessary purchase. Some beat themselves up for their lapses, while others thought their off-the-plan purchases were justified, like a celebratory dinner out after hearing about a promotion or a great deal on carpeting they just couldn't let pass.
Some stayed strong even with grave temptation. Underwood, for example, wrote that his hardest challenge was attending a free seminar hosted by gardening guru Ed Hume.
Note : I was laughing when I read the last para. Gardening, of all things!
