I arrived in Toronto last night around 6 pm. The activities of the 2 days prior to yesterday are pretty hard to remember. A number of friends, and especially my Canadian WV mentor can attest to that.
But, here I sit, at my computer in my room, in Canada. I have a headache at the moment, and my vision isnt the clearest it could be. I woke up a few times during the night, my body reminding me that yes, there is still a problem.
On the way back home, I went from being totally unaware of what was going on around me to wondering (almost) why I was coming home. The headaches, however, remind me well enough that there is something definitely not right. Ill just be glad to figure out what the problem is.
So, I go to the specialist today. Hopefully that will provide some answers. Who knows, in 48 hrs, I might have undergone surgery again. I dont know.
Regardless, heres what Im thankful for: the cold - wow does it feel refreshing!, support from friends and family - blogs are great because everyone knows write away, and I dont have to sit at my computer wondering if Ive included everyones email address, sweaters - I love wearing my Guelph sweater without dying of heat exhaustion!, snow - it reminds me that, yes, it actually is winter, coffee - k, so I haven't had any Timmys yet, because that will just play games with my head, but rest assured that post op, assuming an operation, I will eventually taste that wonderful potion again.
I hope this post finds everyone well. I hope that testings, results, and recovery happen sufficiently fast. Id rather this be a brief interlude than a prolonged complication that jepoardizes the rest of my internship.
Thanks for all your prayers and methods of support.

Alex, I have only come on here a few times, but recently raided my mom's e-mail account and saw the prayer requests sent out for you. I want you to know that you are in my prayers and I pray that God may give you peace and quiteness from these headaches and pain. Isn't it wonderful to know though that God is there always watching out for you. Putting people right where you need them to be when you need them! I pray (and know) that God will be with you in the days to come, especially if you will be going back into surgery. I'll also be praying for your family to give them peace through this stressful time and also that in no time God will have you back up and cruising around other parts of the world on a mission for Him.
