Update on my May VA shunt surgery. It has barely been six months and this new shunt has failed again. My body seems to be in the small group that loves obstructing the end of the tubing not allowing the free flow of intracranial fluid.
It is really difficult to hear the news yet again. But all I can do is look for new alternatives and keep on moving forward.
After a difficult VA shunt surgery, recovery has been arduous. With an accidental nicked nerve in my throat during the operation I am having a hard time speaking and swallowing. Coughing has been developing which is causing quite a struggle. But all and all I am so happy to say that I see a light at the end of the tunnel. I am still living with this insidious condition: IIH, but better than before!
Hoy estoy pidiendo 1 respiración dedicada a mi dolor crónico diario. Se practica en muchas tradiciones, en este caso se atribuye al Budismo. Algunos llaman a esta práctica Tonglen. ¡Siempre agradecida!
The Buddhist practice of Tonglen has been long practiced for the aid of suffering for one person and for the world. Here I ask for one breath to help me in my continued suffering. Thank you!
