Exhale now .....

Forgive me teenage texting imitation but ... OMG OMG OMG .... whew.  
Sorry for not much updating -- after I was given the update that major part started at 9am I got no news at all until I bugged and begged them close to noon for update and caught the surgeon for the news. Long long long part of the wait.

I didn't lose it until AFTER the surgery was done. Held it together this morning and then finally got shaky and teary and all after got news it was over.
And that's when I pulled the bottle of Woodford Reserve Kentucky special out of my purse and took a swig right there in the surgical waiting room. 

More surprising, my mother did too.  She's so NOT a Bourbon person it's not even funny. My dad looked at her and said when the hell was the last time you drank that - 40 years?? 

But we're ok now, eating lunch, waiting to go see him in ICU, practicing breathing and waiting for the next step.

Peace

Jenn

  1. Jenn,

    I am laughing and crying with you. I have no idea what you must be going through today. I am so glad that all is going well. You are an amazingly strong woman (of course we all knew that). I am so happy for you that everything looks good.

    Still praying UU style and sending you good thoughts.

    Neal
