Hey everyone. Sorry to update you all so late, but I just got home. MeMom didn't get up to surgery until 3:30, an hour after she was supposed to go in. I called around 5:30 and the nurse said she was in recovery and the doctor had spoken with my father. Not possible. She said they had spoken to her husband. Once again not possible. She said she had spoken to a male and given him all the info and couldn't release any information to me. I called Trent assuming he was the male in question. He said he hadn't spoken to anyone and had no missed calls or messages. I called the hospital back extremely upset because not only would they not tell me what was going on they were talking to some stranger! When I started griping at the nurse she said she had checked with Mrs. Graves and it was indeed her husband whom she had spoken to. Well great for Mrs. Graves and her husband, but my mom's name is MEMOM!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, well she is still in surgery. SO they transferred me to the room and the nurse said the doctor was putting the last few stitches in and they he would come let me know what was going on. A few minutes later I was talking to the doctor who said the surgery went well. He said she was going to recovery and should be walking without crutches within a week.

Trent called at 6:45 and said Mom had called him and said she would be ready to go in an hour. When Trent got there around 7:30 she was really loopy and he spoke with a nurse. The nurse said she still had to take a pain pill and keep it down for an hour before they would let her go home. So she is still at the hospital in recovery and it will probably be around 10 or 11 before they get to leave.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers today. I know it was just a small surgery but it was surgery nonetheless and I am very grateful that all went well.

Jill, what an ordeal for you to get information about your mom!!! I would have been a basket case as well!!!

Glad to hear the surgery itself went well! I hope MeMom keeps her pain pill down and is able to sleep in her own bed soon!

 

[punkin413]

how frustrating for you!!!! i would've freaked out too. sometimes i really don't know how people get by in life. i know your mom's last name and it sounds nothing like graves!!!

so glad to hear the surgery went well. i'm glad she's loopy - it's for the best. i'm sure we will be seeing some pretty funny posts from her very soon. thanks for updating us, jill!

Thank you so much for the update Jill!!! I'm sorry you had to go through all that trouble to get information on your mom UGH!!! I will be praying for a speedy recovery and that she will be able to get home soon!!!! Let her know we are all thinking of her!!

 

[Poolrat]

Oh My goodness!!!!
I know she said she had no water and no food since midnight!!!!

She must be starving!! I hope she got some food ( that is probably why she is loopy) and then can get some rest. That will keep that pain pill down.

Jill, So Sorry you had that trouble getting information - the downside to HIPPA.
At least Mrs Graves is OK

Really glad to hear MeMom is on the other side of the surgery and on the mend.

Oh goodness, please don't let that nurse anywhere near our MeMom. Glad it went smoothly and hopefully she will be home soon.

No kidding! That's just ridiculous! I hope she's able to go home soon.

 

[Lady Lallie]

Thanks for the update on MeMom. I am glad she is doing well. But that nurse, my goodness!

 

[IluvXU]

Unbelievable! I am sure that was so frustrating Jill... it is hard enough to make phone calls with little ones, let alone to get the run around!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Oh my Jill, didn't you just want to reach through that phone and give someone a yank? I would have been beyond reasoning!
I'm glad the surgery is over but I'm worried about the next few days for her. I'll be glad when Friday gets here and you can go be with her ....

I'm glad she is doing well. That nurse, oh my gosh. I don't know how you can mix up those last names. I hope she's home and in her own bed now, or at least soon!

 

[kschafer]

Gosh Jill, what an ordeal!

MeMom, I hope you got lots of rest last night!! Take it easy for the next few days and let your kids care for you.

 

[daisylove]

Wow. I would have been so frustrated with that nurse!! I am so glad the surgery went well. I hope MeMom is home and sleeping and has a quick recovery!!

 

[reelmom]

MeMom~ I hope that you have a good day today. The day after is usually harder. But just think, next month you will be able to run around Disney with the girls. Let us know if you need something. I know we live all over but if you need something, please pm us and we will see what we can do.

 

[Sarilas]

Oh my gosh, way to scare the heck out of the family! I hope MeMom is home comfortably resting!

The nurse was very lucky I was two hours away. All I could do was use my aggravated voice on the phone.
