I was supposed to be in a parade (June 1995) unicycling and juggling.
This was a Friday. But the Wednesday before I went to doctor and he
said I needed to have my appendix out. I asked if I could go home and
think about it and come back later (after the parade?) He said no, we
are doing it now! Within a couple hours it was all over.
On Friday my son (8 years old) rode his unicycle in the parade while
I watched him live on TV from the comfort of my living room.
I was able to mount and ride my unicycle only a few days after the
surgery. (The doctor told me I had no restrictions.) But I didn't
want to push it. It was about 2 weeks before I was riding normal again.

No you don't get ice cream. All you get is a bandage and a BIG doctors
bill.
