No Surgery...Yet!

Just to let all of you know things have been way crazy lately! We didn't do the surgery yesterday for a few reasons: 1) Child care fell through 2)The "fear of the knife" thing 3)Well I'm not gonna go into this one

So, what did I do instead? I took Maggie to the ER at 8am to have some glass fished out of her knee and a couple of stitches put in! She knelt down on a light bulb in the cleaning closet...OUCH!

The reason I even mentioned this is because I thought it was absolutely hilarious that her lullaby of choice was not "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"! No she prefers a much more mature genre' and quieted down ONLY when I was singing the "Yoda" song!

That's right, she screamed her little heart out until I started singing it. Then she even smiled and sung along for a couple of seconds "Ya, ya, ya....." The doctor was trying so hard not to laugh that he had to stop stitching because his body was shaking! Once he composed himself he told me that I had the cutest little girl that he had ever seen, and she would be one of those patients he'd remember years from now! Seriously!

Hand Update!

meI went to the hand surgeon yesterday. He decided that he's taking it out! He wouldn't drain it because he wants it full so that he can see it better during the surgery!
I'm waiting for the scheduling person to call and finalize the date. The doctor said it would probably be in 1 1/2 to 2 weeks. The AWESOME thing is that is is out patient surgery! They'll give me IV sedation and I won't remember most of it! I'll have my hand in a cast for about two weeks and then be good as new!
