The Good
Turkey. Thanksgiving. Turkey. Football. Turkey. Ok, so Thanksgiving was only so-so this year. My mom was sick, and my brother was out of town, so we didn't have a giant feast. But did I mention that we had turkey? Yes, turkey, a most delicious turkey. I love me some turkey.
On Saturday, we went out with my brother and his girlfriend to celebrate his birthday. Came home and looked through some old photos and had cake. Oh Lemon Grove Bakery, how I love your cake.
I'm pretty much done with Christmas shopping. Just need to pick up something for my mom and I'll be all set.
The Bad
So, I have a sinus infection again. Or at least, that is what I'm being treated for. It is hard to tell what's what nowadays with the tumor creating all sorts of problems. Stuffy and runny nose, post nasal drip, breathing problems...The works
My situation sucks. Because of the rarity of my condition, most doctors don't know what an angiofibroma is, and we are finding out quickly that those who do know what it is are hesitant to take action Kinda unsettling when you say what meds you are on and the doctor looks at you and says, "Wow...I've never heard of someone so young taking that."
Anyway, I've been sick for about a week straight now, and I'm tired of it...I feel like the shit and the meds are making me tired and have no energy or appetite. Yea, it sucks.
I tried winning a free XBox 360 through Comedy Central's Thanksgiveaway, but their f'ing site stopped working...I braved Malibus Most Wanted for nothing
Oh how I love awkward moments. So, I was resting in bed when my mom comes into my room with my bag of art pens. No biggie. She then opens up a drawer and put the pens in. As she is opening the drawer I realize that there is a magazine in there, and well, she saw it ;p Fortunately, she didn't say anything, but the whole situation sucked nonetheless ha...
Found out a couple days ago that we had stuff stolen from us for the third time in 6 months. I have a strong suspicion that my sister was behind it yet again, but as I have no proof, I won't further condemn her to hell just yet...
The Ugly
So I had to postpone my talk with my parents. My mom was hella sick, so talking to her wasn't really an option. Then there was Thanksgiving and my brother's B-Day. But now that things have settled down, it is time to man up and give them the talk. I'm scared as hell, but I just can't keep doing this anymore...I just need to focus on myself and getting better right now...
I over heard that my angio/embolization appointment is on Jan. 6...Yea, I'm scared of that too...
Because I've been sick, I haven't been able to draw at all...So no Nightmare Before Christmas piece Hopefully Billy will take it a week late because I really wanted to have my art displayed But, what can I do?
*Sigh*

Well, as you said, it certainly is a "blessing" that it isn't cancerous. Even still, though...I can't even begin to imagine what you're going through.
Have they said what their plan is if the tumor doesn't shrink?
Regardless, I'm sure you'll be just fine. You've made it this far...and, you've got me hoping for your good health. That's gotta count for something right?
I'll ask my mom if she's got any heathen suggestions, herbal remedies, things like that. She's generally cramming that crap down my throat when I'm sick.
I just bought a Jeep Wrangler...
I sincerely hope you won't have to undergo radiation. Meh...that makes me nervous.
