I keep forgetting it's gone, just like I kept forgetting it was there.

On the way to meet everyone for breakfast Monday before we left for the airport, I ran my fingers through my hair front to back to smooth it out. My fingers met in the middle when they reached that little soft spot below the bone. The little hard bump that had been there almost longer than it hadn't was just not there anymore.



It wasn't ever painful so I don't feel immense relief. It's not painful now, so I don't have any concern. I just sort of wonder how long it's been gone. And another thing. It's not really that near it, but I had to google the word that popped into my head the day before: hippocampus.
