Good news from the orthopaedic registrar: he dismissed the ultrasound as being not a very good diagnostic tool and did a physical exam on my tendon. He was very pleased with how my tendon was healing up :)

It makes me feel much more relieved. Ah, now I feel quite alone with my dad gone. It's like my security blanket's gone and I have to do things for myself. I still maintain that my road is probably the biggest hurdle. Why did I pick such a steep road to live on?

Regardless, I am very much relieved (and thankful to God) that things aren't complicated further.
