As many of you know I had surgery at the beginning of December. I had a much better Dr. this time and she was actually my OBGYN. I went in for a lot of pain on my left side and it turned out to be 2 cysts on my ovary. She had a plan and we scheduled the surgery.
I have to say that this time it was such a better experience!! :) I was so thankful for that too. So just a little side note about the surgery center. I got there super early, and I was very hungry, a nurse came in who actually know from Kokomo to tell me it would be delayed a little because they were out of oxygen in the OR, lol. I wasn't mad at all either because we got a chance to catch up. :) I went in to the OR and I felt so safe and comfortable, I was soothed to sleep and then I woke up crying, lol. Another side note, at my last surgery the nurses were terrible and they had put medicine in my IV before I was even on the table, so I'm pretty sure I fell on the table, what a sight lol!!
The Dr. told Kyle everything went fine and he waited for me to get up. I woke up and it was pretty painful, but I didn't want to take the meds because I didn't want to be sick, so like any normal girl, I cried, haha! The nurses were once again great and so was Kyle. He even fed my jello so I wouldn't get sick. :)
I went home that afternoon and slept until 9, then woke up for short time and went back to sleep. I don't remember most of the night or if I talked to anyone, but it was a great sleep.
Sadly though during the night, my step grandma passed away. She was like my grandma and I loved her dearly. She will be missed by so many but we all love the thought of her dancing with Jesus and spending time with her husband and her family. :) This was a sad time and also a painful one for me, as I had to wear dress clothes that first week of recovery. All is well now though and my incisions are healing well.
This go round the incisions were much higher and they were super glued together. It seemed so odd but I can tell how much better they are healing this time. I went to the Dr. last week or so and she said it was a little more extensive than she was expecting so she wanted to start me on a shot called Lupron Depot. It would medically induce menopause, with all the stuff... I'm going to talk to a nurse more about it tomorrow hopefully, but we are thinking we are going to pass because of the side effects.
We are doing well and finally feeling back to normal which is a really good feeling to say the least!! :)
I hope you all had blessed Christmas and took time to remember the true meaning. We were especially blessed this year and we are so grateful that our family is so supportive of our decisions and we know we wouldn't be here without them all!
