Surgery Nightmare
What do you do when a "simple" surgery turns into a medical nightmare? Back in January I went for my annual mammogram. To my horror, a mass was found and an appointment was scheduled with a breast surgeon. Of course, I am freaking out because there is a great deal of breast cancer history in my family PLUS I am a cervical cancer survivor. Consultation with the surgeon came within two weeks of the mass being found. My husband accompanied me to the appointment. She goes into the density and this and that. Words that I heard but was not listening to. Then she recommended a simple lumpectomy because she did not like the look and shape of the mass. Hubs and I agreed to have it removed. Surgery was scheduled not even a month after the consultation. The surgery was scheduled for 9 am but at 12:15 pm, I was still waiting to be taken into surgery. This caused my anxiety levels to rise thus making my blood pressure elevate (not good prior to surgery). Let's fast forward. Slowly coming to myself (or so I thought) from the anesthesia. I could hear the nurse to the left of me say to my husband, "It is taken her much longer than we expected for her to wake up." I could hear the panic in my husband's voice when he asked what could be the cause. As my eyes finally flutter open, the nurse says, "she had some issues during and after surgery."

Time to Act
With news of the effects of second and third and even fourth waves of the COVID-19 virus and probable variant strains becoming more and more alarming everyday, there should be now no doubt that all of us live on one planet. We live on a planet that no longer has political borders. We are not citizens of this country or that country or this state or that state. We are indeed global citizens whether we want that or not. The Corona virus will not pull over for the guards at any national border-crossing to have its belongings checked or to have its intentions weighed carefully by some officious immigration officer. No, it will blow right on by and keep going until it has achieved its biological mission of infecting a host and splicing itself into the genetic material of that host’s cells so that it can keep on reproducing. This virus depends on all the negative human traits and characteristics that we can muster in order to survive and to continue being productive and successful with respect to its own simple definition of success and productivity. This virus depends on human pride and greed and stupidity in order to keep going. This virus will win this war if we continue to act like the proud, greedy and stupid humans we are so good at being. In order to win this “war” we have to stop acting like we have acted for so long now and start acting like cooperative, kind, helpful and caring human beings. We have to think and act intelligently. We have to be smarter than the virus which is depending on us not to be smart. We have to think and act at least as well as the virus itself. No more blaming, nor more finger-pointing, no more scape-goating. This is not the Wuhan virus or the Chinese virus or the Italian virus or the New York virus. It is the 2020 COVID-19 WORLD virus. If we think about it in any other way or if we think suspiciously about our Asian and/or world neighbours or if we fail to act more intelligently than the virus itself, we are only going to see things get worse. It is indeed time to act. And, here is my plan:
