Hernia Surgery
Tomorrow is Little Bit’s hernia surgery. The worst part is going to be handing her over to the nurses and not being in the back with her. ack. I hate thinking that she might be scared and I won’t know it. The 2nd little worst part is going to be getting up so dang early. Have I ever mentioned that I am not a morning person ?
I feel like there are areas where I completely fail as a mother. Explaining to my child that she is having surgery tomorrow is definitely a "flunking" area. She knows that we are going to the doctor to get her boo-boo fixed. She knows they are going to give her some medicine to make her sleepy, but that’s it. I didn’t know what else to tell her. I didn’t want her to freak out and I wanted her to be able to sleep tonight. I haven’t told her brothers because they would be completely freaking out and then have her freaked out.
Anyone want to pick up my son from camp tomorrow for me ? I’ll get that taken care of tomorrow.
Since I’m on the subject of this surgery, can you believe the hospital called me today wanting a check for $2500 tomorrow morning ? I asked the lady, "do you always call people at 4:30pm the afternoon before their surgery and tell them to bring in $2500 the next morning?" She didn’t say a whole lot. Just what do people do who don’t have that kind of cash sitting around. Oh, she told me, "we will take credit cards." Whoopie. I’m a tad grumpy tonight.
Please remember Little Bit and me tomorrow in your prayers. We will be at the hospital, in the city, early.
Don’t forget to ~spread the love~.
