No More Masks Indoors In Korea

Face masks will only be required on buses, subway and trains.

Even though masks are not required outdoors, about 80-90% still wear masks, including me.

Happy Lunar New Year! It is on 21 January this year.

Bigger Scar If Surgery Is Delayed

Doctor stresses that the longer I wait to remove the bone tumor, the bigger the scar will be. So, I agreed to  be hospitalized for two days. Not as serious as my last surgery, it seems. Still hurts. 

Had anxiety attacks and lost interest in life for a while, then I managed to be able to count my blessings and felt better. Funny how that works.

It seems scientists and theorists are now start to accept that consciousness is a fundamental force or dimension! Funny how that worked out.

Still Recovering From Surgery

And now, I found out that a small bump on my head is a benign bone tumor. Doctor is recommending it be removed. I am for waiting to see if it grows any bigger. 

I am glad for national medical insurance. Save thousands of dollars annually.

Really Lucky?

Had tumor removed from bladder on Friday. So far, it seems to be a 'benign' tumor but if allowed to continue to grow, would get larger and penetrate the bladder wall. Then seriously expensive surgery is needed to cut out the tumor and stitch the bladder together again. End up with a tube up your ----- into your bladder for several unbearably painful weeks, if fortunate.

I get the detailed results on the 17th. It seems good so far, but the tumor returns 60% of the time, in most cases. Hope the detailed results are better.

Could have died, if my doctor didn't demand that I get my cystoscopy exam. For most people, it is slightly uncomfortable, but I am unique and have a sharp bend, so it really hurts. That's why I skipped my exam. 

A couple more years of skipping the exam and would have likely died after a few years of expensive surgery.
