Ive been worried about Auntie too...no word yesterday or today. I hope everything went ok...and that we hear good news soon.

auntie · Mar 28, 2008

I'm back

...and thank you all for your good thoughts and prayers. Bob is home...really home..everything went well! :thumbsup2

I know that probably sounds well wierd..that I'm surprised there were no surprises... but we've had some very bad experiences with surgery in the past(we lost our older daughter after some heart surgery)..and I guess I was anticipating the worst given what we've had to deal with previously. He is in some pain, but that's to be expected, and the Dr. that discharged him didn't leave any scripts for pain med. Just heard from his surgeon and he was very apologetic..was in surgery all day, and had his partner discharged Bob. He's calling in scripts and I should be able to pick them up shortly. Bob is not one to complain..but I know he hurts. I just want him to be able to get some sleep tonight. It's good to have him back in the house. They told us it would be just two days..but I was so worried..since things were getting complicated..and when the surgeon came out to speak to me after just three hours of surgery(when they told us it would be four)..I was prepared to hear it didn't go as expected. Then he told us everything was fine..it was almost routine, and went exactly as anticipated....I was sort of numb... I was still waiting for the other shoe to drop..and NOTHING..he says.."okay I'll see him tomorrow and and in the office next week"..and starts going into his aftercare. AFTERCARE! HAHA...I could have kissed him! :yay:

AFTER CARE IS GOOD! It's such a relief. I've been trying to keep positive for the kids and not show them I was worried. We've been through hospital stays before with both my sons also..as nervous as we were, we had each other to lean on. With it being him..well, I didn't want to put my worries on the kids(so I put them on you guys!..sorry)...Okay..WAY too much drama here! I just want to thank you all for your good thoughts and prayers. THEY WORKED. :wizard:

I've never been so happy to see him home and sleeping in the recliner! :lovestruc

AuburnJen92 · Mar 28, 2008

Phyllis,

It is great news to hear you breathe a sigh of relief. We had been praying for him and had him in our thoughts. Best of luck in his recovery.

Momof626x3 · Mar 28, 2008

Phyllis,

Glad to hear everything went well. I'm mostly a lurker but I was praying for him.

RvUsa · Mar 28, 2008

Phyllis, so glad to hear everything went great.... tell him pain meds good.... make feel better..... :lmao:

. After my last surgury, they sent me home with darvo... .woohoo, may as well be tylenol.... lol

Hope, he recovers fast and you guys will be camping in no time.

Momof626x3 · Mar 28, 2008

I think I'm only 3 away from earning my stinking ears.

Momof626x3 · Mar 28, 2008

2....?

Momof626x3 · Mar 28, 2008

This has only taken me 2 years... :laughing:

kc5grw · Mar 28, 2008

Phyllis, I'm glad that everything went well for yall.

I can relate to the pain meds. I remember I had some pretty good stuff back when I did this..

Momof626x3 · Mar 28, 2008

Okay, back to mostly lurking... :surfweb:

auntie · Mar 28, 2008

You guys are the best :flower3:

I so appreciate the thoughts and prayers sent our way. I felt kind of dumb posting about his surgery..but then at the same time, I felt like I "speak" to you folks everyday...so hey why not? I've enjoyed coming here, reading and posting, but in the last couple of months it's kept my mind from wandering and dwelling on worst case scenarios. So you people have been helping me more than you really know. Just by being your crazy selves! :wizard:

Oh..and John...my older son told Bob.."hey dad..make sure you save some of those pain meds for when you're feeling better!" :rotfl:

I think I'm gonna be counting those pills! :scared:

bigdisneydaddy · Mar 28, 2008

Okay, I missed the whole story but please accept my good wishes for a speedy recovery. :thumbsup2

LONE-STAR · Mar 28, 2008

Phyllis glad to hear all is well. :cool1:
