She was nervous about the IV's. Not at all about the surgery......but freaked out about the IV's.She got thru it. They let me go down to surgery prep with her. So I made her laugh. She said NO PICTURES...........................(well I talked her into a few)..........
When surgery was over the surgeon came out to talk to us while she was in recovery. She told us all went well but instead of the two hernias, she found 5! Five holes in her abdominal walls......she said that was very unusual for someone as young as her........and repaired them all. She will have a 2" scar above her belly button and the other one is hidden in her belly button. Hopefully it will alliviate all of the pain she has been in for the last several months...........
She is home now. She should be resting but has had LOTS of company. I finally just shoo-ed the last of them out and now she is resting on the couch. In her comfy little nest. She hasn't complained much about pain......but she may have overdone today and I hope she has a good nights sleep. We all need it. And I hope she isn't too sore tomorrow. The Dr. said she is out of commission for sports etc for 6 weeks! No lifting, no weight training, sports of any kind.....or vaccuming..........ha ha.....she was a trooper today......I will give her pain meds and hope we all sleep well................she has a frankenstein patch on her stomach........
She has her little "area"...............propped up on the couch like a princess.....cell phone (of coarse), magazines, book, water, juice, blankets (I gave her a new Spongebob one today, lol), snacks, word search, remote control, and her mommy waiting on her hand and foot. :) I came home and made her, her favorite homemade soup, homemade bread and homemade strawberry jam.....................she is set.

The house is quiet. All company gone. Tyler is staying the night at grandma and grandpas. I'm ready to go take a warm shower and crawl in bed................................
