Surgery Update

Wow, what a busy last 4 to 5 days.  Randy had his surgery (for his acid reflux, they wrapped some of his stomach around his esophagus) on Thursday Feb. 14 and talk about one long day.  We were on the road at 3am, Randy was in surgery at 8am and done by 10am.  All went well with his surgery!  However, after surgery Randy then had to wait in recovery for 10 hours!  Yep, didn't put that in there wrong.  10 HOURS!  Can you imagine how furious, crazy, upset, disappointed I was?  All that they kept telling me was that Randy is doing fine and that we are waiting on a room to open up.  Well, to make a long story short Randy did get a room at 8pm.  Thankfully, he had some really great nurses once we got his room.  We got to go home on Sunday afternoon.  Nothing is better than sleeping in your own bed again. 

Thank you to all for the phone calls, text messages, messages and visits we got from everyone!  Big thanks to Tyler and Tori for coming over to Omaha to visit and then getting a hotel room so that I could stay with them.  I got to sleep with Jaycee (let me tell you, she is awesome, but also loves to kick, I got a heel in the gut about 4:30am, ouch!) And then on Friday, Peggy and Craig showed up with Memphis!  It was the best surprise ever (well I knew they were coming but I didn't realize it would be that early!) Peggy and Craig got a hotel room and let me stay with them.  It was wonderful!  Thank you to everyone for all of your support!

We couldn't have done this without Peggy and Craig watching Memphis for 4 days for us and for Tony watching our dogs!  Thank you guys!  All of your helps means the world to us!!!!

One of the many pictures we got while we were at the hospital! 

Randy up and moving on Sunday.  Smiling because we get to finally get to go home!!!
