Even though I am feeling relatively good. I am not moving very fast and seemed to have lost an entire day somewhere. my surgery took twice as long as expected so my planned timeframe went down the toilet. Today I was raring to go and Mimi gracelousy helped me get showered and ready and even did my hair to get ready to head back up to the hospital and then I ended up with a migraine. I totally overmedicated myself and ended up sleeping the rest of the day away which probably wasn't the worst thing in the world. I do feel like a truck hit me and then backed back over me and I am looking pretty battered, but Matthew was an excellent companion who opened a mean container of applesauce for me. I couldn't have asked for a better night nurse. Rob will stay en extra night with Daniel h=who told me today he is missing his roommate that made me a little sad. He is actually not doing so hot right now and has contracted a bit of a virus which is making him not feel so great anymore. Rob said he slept a lot today which is not great but probably expected seeing as though his numbers are almost at their lowest. We will have several days of this I am sure and when I go back the two of us can just hang out and be lazy bums together for the next few days. He isn't allowed visitors now for the next few days with this new virus so we will just hang out with each other. Maybe a vicodin marathon...oops I mean movie marathon. Either way. I have missed him terribly for the day I was gone even though I don't remember much of it. Thank you friends for keeping checking on me and Matthew for being such a good helper. I am so proud of the man he has stepped up to be this summer. It is amazing what happens when you see things need doing and don't even need to be asked. You should all be so lucky to have such good young men in your lives. We got very lucky to have such good boys. I am such a proud momma.

Nadine, we have been out of town for a couple of weeks so tonight I caught up on all your posts. You have been through so much! I have another friend who had the same preventative surgery you did, so know what she went through. She did not have a critically ill child to care for during her recovery though. I just want you to know that Lorenzo and I continue to pray for all of you every single day. It comforts me to know how much love and support you have from so many friends and family. We send you much love. Cherry
