another in the Sunday Seven Series
It’s post-surgery day T+24. My recovery continues more or less without issue. My right hand and arm continue to improve slowly, and I’m still not seeing much of an uptick in my left hand. I’m only wearing the cone o...
me and Sia
Hey! Still here. Been too busy the last couple of weekends to continue what had been a pretty good streak of weekly dispatches. I’ll get back to it once we get through graduation season.
A quick update on the neck situation is in or...
