Day 1 - They weren't kidding

So it's been a day since my surgery and let me say everyone was right. It hurts like hell. Imagine the worst sore throat you've ever had and then double that. The scary part is that supposedly it gets worse in a couple days before it gets better. I won't disgust anyone with the details, but it was a rough night and morning.

Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes. It means a lot.
