Burnish for a Starry Sheen

This blog is updated to keep friends and family abreast (HA!) of my cancer treatment. Please feel free to leave comments. As for the title, "Starry Sheen" is a play on my name and a reminder of our calling as Christians to continuously grow in faith and wisdom and obedience, aiming to "shine like stars in the universe" (Philippians 2:12-18). I firmly believe God can use this experience to burnish me: to polish my roughness so that I shine brighter for His glory.

Anecdotes

- surgery about 3 hours
- 2 cups of ice and 5 glasses of water before attempting a bag of smuggled chips
- only 1 shot for pain during recovery (that built in painkiller pump is pretty handy. Igor wants one too.)
- 2 doctors and a nurse needed to approve release, hopefully by noon.

So relieved to hear some humor in there...but how's she doing emotionally? And you?

Sid says "I do fine emotionally as long as I don't look at the site."

But she hasn't actually looked so how can she know?

Glad you are home. And hopefully you are able to get some deep sleep thanks to the pain meds. XOXO.
