Woohoo! See all these people came to share their love - I told them you were having surgery!!! I just got home from the hospital.
This morning I met my friend Melissa - she was kind of nervous this morning. I got there at 6:30 am (lol yes my eyes were half closed, as were hers I'm sure!!) and I nearly missed her! My mom called down into the recovery room to see if we had missed her - they said when she checked in that the would let me see her for a FEW minutes (I explained the angel situation) and boy did they mean A FEW.
She seemed so excited to see me - I felt like a movie star LOL. But I gave her a BIG hug and told her everything would be okay, and then the Doctors kind of kicked my butt out of there! But I knew she was in good hands, so my mom led her dad up to the waiting room. He was a little emotional, but I told him not to worry - she'd be fine!
Then a little while later her mom came up and we went on to talk for a LOOOONG time. It was really fun :) It passed the time. We were all wondering how she was doing. So my mom and I walked around the hospital - I wanted to get her a card or something. I bought her the cutest thing ever!!! It is a purple angel bear stuffed animal - to help me watch over her in her journey! I thought it was the cutest thing ever!!!
Then we headed back up to the waiting room and we all talked again for a while, Mary had said you wouldn't be done until about 10:30 - so we waited and waited and waited.
Finally at 10:15 - we heard you were on your way into the recovery room and you were doing well, you were asking for your mom. That's really great - she sounds very awake! I don't even think my eyes were open in the recovery room!!!
But unfortunately I wasn't able to stay and see you - they said you'd only leave the recovery room in 2 or more hours, even then you'd be very groggy and might not be very talkative lol. Our parking meter was running out, so I handed your mom the angel and told her if there is anything that you need - just call me!!
WELCOME TO THE LOSER'S BENCH!!!
