post surgery: day 8

Today we got a call from Dr. Olivero with the results of my pathology test.  He said that my eye tested positive for malignant iris melanoma, which means that the tumor was cancerous.  The good thing, though, was that there were no signs of metastasization, which means that there were no cells that spread outside of my eye to other parts of my body.  He said that we caught the cancer early, and removed the eye at the right time, and we should not see any other effects or problems from here on out- we're in the clear!!!  Yippee!!!

I'm feeling great, and have been back to my old self, chasing my sister around the house (I can still beat her up with one eye) and chilling out on the floor.  Although, I wish my hair would grow back more quickly, cause it's looking kinda dorky...
