Update : I have made it out. No complications, no extraordinary efforts. Very large though. Lost the external carotid artery, but kept the internal (the important one).

Also, a pic. First, a buffer

Nasty little bigger!

As documented here, about 5 months ago I was supposed to have a tumor removed from my neck. Then they fucked it up, and I’ve been patiently waiting to get the ok to have them try again.

Well, the day is finally here. So let’s make with the cutting. I hope they take pictures.

Best of luck, I hope it goes well and wish you a speedy recovery!

Re pictures : I once had a groin hernia repaired in one of those theater operating rooms that has seats above it. I got ejected from post-op early for (allegedly) repeatedly yelling at the n urses to “G ive me the video tapes! I don’t want you putting videos of my dick on the internet!!! ” while I was coming off the anesthesia.
