surgery done and over with


Surgery is done and over with. it is painful, they took out more than they thought....but it's done and that's what's important!

had a great time in the pre-op. t came and my mom. t entertained the troops by putting booby tassels on himself made from medical tape. He blew up a medical glove and then popped it, scaring the entire floor.

what was really funny was the fact that when i was in pre-op, we got word that the operating room was flooded. for some reason, the temp got to 100 degrees, then started raining from the ceiling. they had to move me to another o.r. and then do it there. in the meantime, my nurses had to take me on a ride across the entire hospital...we had to go running up ramps, with me in the bed with all my hosptial garb on. i put my hands in the air like i was riding a roller coaster...it was a blast.

when i got in to the o.r. the nurse was awesome. she rubbed my arm the entire time...was really comforting. what i really like was the fact that it started out with me laying there normally, and then i woke up.

now, not so great, but its done!
