Burr hole victim lol

Well I was recently attacked by a tenant of mine on the day he got evicted.

Even the cops can't seem to figure out what he used to hit me on the back of the head. Whatever it was it did a lot of damage. So while he is on an assault and attempted murder charge. He ruptured blood vessels in my head which I unknowingly carried around for about two months until the crazy headaches began.

My doctor ordered a CT scan and there was blood pushing my brain to one side. He immediately put me on admission and called a neurosurgeon, he came, studied the scan and I had a burr hole craniotomy the very next day. My very first surgical procedure, it was painful and quite terrifying, had a drain tube sticking out of my head for two days. He did not take it out until only cerebral fluid was floating in there. He guaranteed me he got it all but I'm still petrified, he even discharged me but I was re admitted when I had blood pressure issues and difficulty breathing and a high fever. Apparently I have an infection and currently being treated on admission.

I am still petrified, all it takes is one little clot and bye bye. I never even knew such things could happen but c'est la vie and here I am. Watching the surgery video he explained how lucky I was because I had some massive bleeding and no cognitive damage. People say I should thank my lucky Stars but I'm still scared, don't wanna go out this way.

Still on admission and praying I don't convulse into oblivion lol
