i deliberately ate a lot, the last few days. partly it was an obstinate desire to enjoy the act of eating (despite some pain involved) in the time remaining before my surgery, which will deny me the use of my mouth for some period of time, perhaps several weeks. also, i was "cleaning out" my fridge.
so i think i stretched my stomach and now, on starvation prior to the pet scan, my stomach is annoyed. i will be ok – this is the beginning of my super amazing cancer diet plan whereby i will finally lose those impossible-to-lose last 10 kg. i was telling about this plan to one of my coworkers the other day and i think it took him a while to realize it was (partly) a joke.
dawn comes early in summer in korea. . . because they dont do daylight savings time. around 445 the brightening window of my stark 10th floor room woke me. i trundled my iv stand over to the window to look out on a misty, overcast ilsan.
