In my ear/head I had what they call a Cholesteatoma, which is basically a tumor made up of skin cells. The good thing about this thing is that it is begnin, meaning that it is non-cancerous. But still it could be very scary.
Mom, Dad, and I took the trip early monday morning down to Salt Lake for the surgery. I was so nervous the entire time! Luckily on Sunday, the day before, I was able to get a priesthood blessing from my brother, dad, and grandpa. That sure did help with the nerves, but for some random reason my stomach was churning the entire time!
After the surgery all I really remember is being really tired, and people constantly coming in and trying to talk to me. I spent that night in the hospital for observations, which is a good thing. I had some complications, but not major ones... The next morning, Tuesday, I got to go home. I spent all week at my parentals, and I must admit I miss living there. I sure do have a good family.
Well here are some pictures that show my awesome headdress, and my weird new haircut that I'm still trying to figure out.
