I was doing a search for my old workplace on Flickr, and came across a photo of me taken by an ex-colleague. It was taken on the 12th of November, 2008.

That was fifteen days before surgery.

And that was taken at Notes for Stroke, about ten and a half months after surgery.
I know that Cushing’s did some horrible things, but it feels like such a long time ago. I’d almost forgotten what it was like. I remember that it felt shit, but the actual details were something I don’t really think about anymore. It’s kind of fascinating now.
In other news, there are 41 days left in Sydney. I have an incredibly packed schedule for that month and a half, and many hours on the bike and at the gym. I’m getting the feeling that no matter how much I do, I will wish that I did more. My goal is to just be able to cycle what I’m supposed to without dying.
