Waiting was the worst part of the whole day. She had the surgery on January 14th and we had to be there @7:30 am. It was at UVRMC. She didn't get taken back for the procedure until about 10:30 am. She was only gone about 25 min to have the right inguinal hernia lapriscopically removed. After they brought her back her oxygen levels weren't that great so they had to put some oxygen on her. She cried some and said it hurt even though it didn't, it was just bothering her. We got home and set her on our bed and went to fix her some soup and she tried to get up and fell off the bed. She had some anasthesic that was like an epidural so she could not walk yet. That was weird for her and so when she could walk again she was so happy. She was running by midday on Friday and even said to me "look Mom I am running". I was very happy that she was doing so well so quickly. The evening of we took her to get ice cream and then up the canyon to look at Deer and Elk. We saw a lot of animals and even saw a cougar attack some Elk, well Brandon did through the binoculars. Glad to have the whole thing over and her two little scars are so tiny you would never know she had anything done. At the hospital they also gave her a little bag of stuff to keep her occupied and that was nice.
I am married to a wonderful guy named Brandon and we have three great kids. Jayden is 13 and just started 8th grade, he loves snakes and crocodiles and movies. Aubrey is 8 and takes piano lessons. She also sings in her school choir. She loves to play outside and is very helpful and friendly. Alli is 5 and just started kindergarten. She is 5 going on 13 I always say. She is into hunting with her dad. We enjoy camping and boating and fishing as a family.
