Wow, I feel a lot better today. I think the swelling has started to go down. My neck still hurts, but I was able to sleep on my back again last night. I tried to see if I could last all night without the hydrocodone, but I woke up around 3a and decided that I did need it after all. You should see the back of my throat, it’s pretty gross. I won’t describe it because I wouldn’t want any weak-stomached readers to lose their lunch on the keyboard. I just hope I feel better every day. I want to be at least 90% recovered by Saturday, if not 100%. They say it takes about 7 to 10 days, so we’ll see. All I know is, if I can’t eat a normal Christmas dinner, there’s going to be Hell to pay…
