it comes and goes

Well, the big surgery day has no been completed. I am a little sore because I have to get up and pee like every five seconds it seems. I guess that is what happens when you go without water all day and then drink a whole bunch when you get home.

I wanted to say thank you to my mom and sister and also Randi's folks for coming and seeing me at the hospital. That really meant a lot to me. I know that it was just a small surgery, but for me, it was a gigantic ordeal!

There isn't a whole lotta pain right now, just some tenderness and I can still feel the air that they pumped in my stomach. The air they pumped in made my stomach like a tent so they could do the laparoscopic surgery. I was suppposed to end up with 3-4 small holses, but I just counted and there are 5 for me. This is probably due in part to the fact that they found a rather large (size of the end of your pinky)stone in the bile duct. So had I told him to hold off on the surgery, I could have ended up in msome major major pain very soon!!I think though, the worst part I experienced in the hospital the whole time was when the RN blew out 2 of my veins when trying to get my IV started. But the third time was the charm I guess. But I have some swelling and bruising on my right wrist where she tried to start the IV.

So other than that and being extremely tire. So I am going to get to sleep so i be somewhat functional. I guess now it is on to the root canal! Woo hoo!!
