My Mom had a laminectomy(decompression Surgery) on Monday. Gordon and I were both off to take her. Only one of us could go in teh pre-op room so it was me. We ended up there for 2 hours. Then we were told that they would be in surgery for 1.5 - 2 hours and to go get lunch. So we did. The call came that they were starting as we arrived at Chilis. Then 30 minutes later the Dr called to tell us he was done and it took less time. He said she would be in recovery about an hour. So we raced back to the Hospital. almost 3 hours later they had her in a room. Her maneer's (Dizziness) had apparently acted up from rolling her around and she was terribly dizzy and not in a good mood from it. Needless to say she didn't get to come home Tuesday as planned. She ended up staying til Thursday. Gordon took a long lunch and picked her up and met me at her house. Then we went to lunch at Bodacious, dropped off her prescription and then he went back to work and so did I for a couple hours then back to check on her. Amazingly the only problem seems to be the dizziness still a bit. She says the pain is a 2 on a scale of 1-10.
I took time wednesday to get Gavin from school and take him home to Chris. I wanted to see Michelle's new scrappy room in person. I really like her new room. Chris did a great job. I stayed about an hour playing with Gavin.
Friday I got Gavin from school and we hung out a bit and then went to Petland which is next to Michael's where we were meeting Michelle. He held his first bunny, tried to catch the gold fish in the tank and chatted with the BIG birds. He had so much to say to them all. The bunny holding went great until he decided to eat his ears...LOL Then we met Michelle and shopped at Michael's with our 20% off coupons. :) Then we hit Big Lots.... It was alot of fun... Gavin loves his stroller...
