As I sit here on the Friday before Christmas I am awaiting big news that cannot come soon enough for me. You see I have had Colon Polyps in the past and some were just shy of full blown Type A Cancer. And on this past Wednesday I went to the Ann Arbor VAMC and was given an Upper/Lower Endoscopy where they took no less than 13 Biopsies from my Stomach & my Colon.
And now I sit here with no real information days before Christmas knowing that I will at some point be told at the very least I likely need surgery on my stomach for a hole that appears to be causing issues. And I know they will want to redo my fundoplication (I'm sure I misspelled that word) for my severe acid reflux.
I would rather spend Christmas with knowledge of what's to come than sit here with nothing and no real opportunity before the holiday to be sure of what they want to do to/for me. My Bipolar is on overdrive as I struggle to not worry myself to death over this thing that happened just days before Christmas.

The sleep deprived and a constant ringing from no one
This time of the year my sleep is off and on at best, at worst I don't sleep for days, sometimes weeks at a time. Last night I was trying to sleep and someone from the Grand Rapids, MI area kept calling me repeatedly refusing to leave a message for the second day in a row only this time it seemed like they were calling every hour for three or four hours.
Even going so far as using a different number on the second day but still it kept ringing in my ears to the point where every time I came out of REM sleep my mind wondered who it was and what the hell was so important they had to keep trying my number over and over. By 11pm I was now wide awake and thinking about the number(s) which when I searched online found nothing to tell me who it was other than it was a landline.
If for some reason it's a creditor they aren't going to warm themselves to the idea of me paying them when they keep calling me like that. I don't like my sleep disturbed because as a Bipolar with Sleep Apnea, sleep is a hard thing to come by at times. And lately with other things going on I don't need the aggravation this is causing me.
And what is with the no longer being able to legitimately search for phone number information without someone trying to get their hand in my pocket? Why must we pay for information for businesses that are harassing us when we go to find out who they are in order to stop them from going that far? With phone calls refusing to even leave a message when they insist on calling hour after hour into the early evening?
