HOME!

well, i am home as of yesterday. thanks to everyone that called, stopped by, sent flowers or has already brought food. it is greatly appreciated! it is great to have such good friends and family. it looks like andrea updated her blog about me but for those of you that don't read her blog i will tell you about it....

my surgery took 2 1/2 hours instead of an hour and half. the doctor said it was worse than she had anticipated. i had a lot of endometrios, a tumor on my left ovary and a chocolate cyst on my bowel. they sent both of them off to pathology to make sure they are ok, but she was almost certain that they would be fine. i had told her that i wanted to keep my ovaries but if she got in there and there was something wrong with them then to take them. i had originally had problems with my right ovary so you can imagine my surprise when they told me they had taken my left ovary. she said of everything in there that my right ovary looked the best. i have to go in friday for a check up and to get my first shot. i have to have 2 shots that will last 3 months each. the shot is to make sure the endometrios doesn't come back. the shots will put me into menopause for 6 months. i am real excited about that. but i really don't want the endometrios to come back. also, my bladder was growing into my uterus. not sure how that works but that is what they said. i had a lot of pain the first day and night. i woke up at 1:30 on Thursday morning in a lot of pain. i thought maybe i just needed to get up since i had been laying in that bed forever. when the nurse came to get me up i told her that i was really shaky and that i felt like i had gotten behind on my pain medicine. which i knew i hadn't because i had been hitting it a lot. well come to find out my iv for my pain medicine had fallen out and i hadn't been getting any pain medicine. no wonder i was hurting. once i got some pumped into me i started feeling a lot better. i am doing very good for everything i have just been thru. i am really glad that i went ahead with the surgery. because who knows what it would have been like if i would have waited. God was looking out for me. i went to bronson's soccer game this morning and then to braxton's flag football game this afternoon. a lot of people wondered why i was out and i told them i was just going to sit at home so i might as well sit at their games and watch them. i am more sore tonight than i was last night so hopefully i didn't overdue it today. anyhow, thanks again for all the prayers and for just thinking about me. i love all of you:)

i am going to try and talk jared into getting a computer. this sitting at home without one is for the birds. i should have thought of that sooner, then i would have maybe had one now!

i will hopefully be back on here soon to blog. i have really missed reading everyones blogs! have a great rest of the weekend and i will be in touch.....
