My Mom....

[DianaB]

The hospital was 45 miles away at Parsons and she was suppose to be there at 11:00 and I got there a few minutes after that. She didn't go into surgery until 12:45. Her surgery took about an hour and a half and she was in recovery for a while. It was quite some time before she was taken up to her room. She looked really bad but since she'd just had surgery that was to be expected. She has an ice thingy that circulates cold water to help with the swelling. The doctor said that everything went as expected and that it was going to be painful for a while.

We had half of a waiting room filled with three of my aunts, an uncle, my step-father, our pastor and his wife, and me. We had a good time chatting while we were waiting. I hate to think about the pain that she's going to have with therapy. No fun. Thanks for your prayers!!
