Late night call....

So last night my mom called after 1am to tell me my dad was on his way to the hospital in an ambulance... scary. I was so freaked out I jumped out of bed and scrambled around trying to find something to wear which in turn scared William awake. He was screaming and I was terrified I was going to lose my daddy. All I kept thinking was that I wasn't ready for him to go. It's making me cry right now just to think of it....I couldn't sleep at all last night... So my thought now is tell your loved ones how much they mean to you because you never know....

As an after thought I didn't even need to go to the hospital...he was seen really fast and I was able to talk to him on the phone and reassured me he was fine, it turns out he has Kidney stones. So just pray for a speedy recovery and that he passes them as painlessly as possible.

No more crutches!

I ditched the crutches on Wednesday. I don't have full range of motion but I have enough.

Ouch

Knee surgery.... whew what a pain in the knee. So I had surgery on friday morning in L.A...and was home by 1pm. Amazing how fast arthroscopic surgery is. I have four holes in my knee, and a whole lot of swelling. It seems like forever since I've left the house. I can't do anything which is driving me insane. I'm dependent on crutches again which makes housework or tend to William impossible. To top things off John went back to work on Tuesday, so both William and I are crawling anywhere we can...him on all fours me on my butt (I guess it's more of a scoot for me). Very difficult, but I do get some help...yesterday my friend Meridith came over and took care of William and some housework....and today my brother came over for a few hours to help. Not too mention my mom driving me to the hospital, the follow up doctor appt. and back home again. But enough about me....William crawls when he has his sights set on something he wants, is able to pull himself into a standing position, and finally slept through the night without eating....and without crying to be with us. Yes that's right in his bassinet all night long. Which is good for me because he rolls all over during the night....he takes up more of the bed than John and I do.

Anxious

Eggh my knee surgery is this Friday... pre-op at 5am and surgery at 7am... blech I feel sick.....but I know it's necessary as my knee has been getting progressively worse. Yesterday it gave out while I was walking around in the backyard and I fell while holding William! I was in a lot of pain but was more worried about him...his head snapped backwards when I fell although I managed to turn in such a way that he didn't hit the ground...whew. But I got him checked out anyway ...he was just fine. In need of chiropractic adjustment but other than that just fine.
