So Surgery went well... The days following not so well! Man oh man... It was rough for a couple of days! Poor Hubby was in soooo much pain it was almost unbearable to watch. The pain meds made him so so sooooo SICK! He couldn't take them, but the pain was so PAINFUL! All he could handle was 600ibuprofin... Every 6 hours even though the pain came back after 4 hours. Man it was rough, but we MADE it!! I drove him around Monday to do a couple work errands & some family errands done & he was FREEZING!! 80 degrees on his side while I was baking alive....that NEVER happens!!! Crazy things happened during that 5 days & I'm so grateful for prayers being answered, wonderful priesthood blessings, & thoughtful neighbors to take care of us even though I felt like I had it under control....sometimes others KNOW better & I just have to accept the help!! Thank goodness by Tuesday he was feeling good enough to go back into work cause NOBODY...not even his boss...was running his job right. I was nervous for him to go in, but fortunately by Thursday things were doing MUCH better!!! The Doc said the weird 'ol swelling was normal, & it all looked good. The results were NO CANCER, but other "unique" things were found, so Alan will visit with another specialist to try & figure this all out. Weird, but that's life!!! :)
I'm so grateful he is doing better! It's hard to see someone you love so much be in pain & not be able to do anything for it! I'm grateful for patient kids who, by some miracle, tip-toed around the house while Daddy suffered. {...we did get to enjoy a family movie night on Monday. It was nice to have Dad home EARLY, so we could start the movie early enough to finish it before bedtime!!!}
Thank you for all your concern & prayers in our behalf...we truly have felt blessed during this lil obstacle in life!
