Out of surgery and HOME SWEET HOME!

Tristan likes to blog too

How freakin cute is his little tushy?

I gave him a red licorice and let him go wild. It was fun!

This is me after the surgery

This is me before the surgery ( and yes, I did cut and color my hair, and it is really cute when I am not at the hospital, I promise!

I had an appendectomy done laproscopically, I had a D&C and fibroid removal done laproscopically. Surgery was like 6 hours. When I woke up I was in intense pain because I could not urinate. It took 8 nurses and a Dr to get me a catheter. They say that in addition to the significant endo that they found they discovered an anatomical defect of my urethra (please feel free to insert a king of the hill comment here.) So I was sent home with a folley cath and have an apt with the OB/GYN at 11:40 tomorrow. I will then be referred to a urologist. YAY, CAN'T WAIT. One thing that is confusing to me is the paperwork they sent me home with. It says he ended up doing an ablation inside of my uterus. This would mean that I can never have another child. I am okay with that, but that is not what we talked about so I am looking forward to figuring that out. My throat hurts like crazy from being intubated.
My family and ward have already brought hugs, yummy food, love, help, and one very special song that I would like to share with you now: The artist is Rachelle Call and the song is "Something Wonderful"
Something wonderful is waiting
To embrace you, I know
When you're tired and feel like fading
And there's nowhere left to go
When tears are falling down
And your heart is on the floor
Keep on walking my friend
Cause something wonderful
Is right outside your door

Something wonderful awaits you
To take you where dreams have never gone
And though you're still in this moment
Holding on...just holding on
And no one knows what you've been through
Or gone a mile in your shoes
Keep on walking my friend
Cause something wonderful is waiting for you

When the walls come down around you
And you want to throw the fight
And the mighty wind surrounds you
On an unforgiving night
Keep looking up to heaven
And you will see the light
And all the reasons why
Something wonderful is waiting to embrace you
And although your heart is on the floor
Keep on walking my friend
Cause something wonderful is right outside your door
Something wonderful is right outside your door

xoxo,
Lynsie

I'm a new reader, but I enjoy your blog! I had the laproscopic appendectomy several years ago and it was a full week before I felt human. Take care of yourself!
