surgery day!

Yesterday went soo much better than I expected!!! im soo happy!...kpp is doing well..

we woke up and got ready.....and waited for dad to get here..


after dad arrived we went out to children’s hospital...its weird because i wasn’t nervous at all...id read to kpp the entire morning so i think he was really happy...the only bad part was the fact that he ended up going to sleep on the way there...so when we got there he was a little cranky...until he saw all the toys....

i put his hospital gown on after the short work up the nurse gave him...

and he was being his normal active self...trying to open doors and explore!

until dad had to lay down the law lol and made him sit in his lap lol...

so of course he copped a quick attitude. grabbed his puppy and went back to " baby mode"..oh yeah that’s the puppy...he loooves that thing! (don’t tell him but i think it USED to be soo cute..now its all ratty!)

but quickly got over his attitude and begin to mess with his favorite thing! BLINDS!!!


so i made him sit with me for a bit on the bed...until the nurses and doctors were ready for him...


the camera was a good distraction...so he was okay for a little bit...

well they were ready now...the anesthesiologist had come into the room and told us that he would be kicking and flailing all over the place..(or at least that’s what i heard lol)....so i was a little nervous to go back to the surgery side room with him...well we all went back..Everyone was sooooooo nice!....the anesthesiologist put the little mask over his face..while everyone kinda stood around...while he played with a little toy...and it began....now i was good up until this point...he took breathes...and his eyes got heavier and heavier...and then...he was out...i saw his little eyes roll back in his head. and that’s when i kinda lost it lol...i teared up...i didn’t like go crazy...i just teared up...the nurse saw that so she tried to console me a bit..and dad was right there...he always seems to be soo unmoved by things...its kinda weird to me lol..
MEN! LOL..(well i guess that would be weird to an overemotional person such as myself lol) we all walked out of the surgery room and let the doctors do what they needed to do for him...

we went into the waiting room...i read my magazines and dad brought his books to study for his tests...so we were occupied...it was really a nice and quiet area...we had a view of a little lake...very nice......i ended up falling asleep because i hadn’t had much sleep the night before....until i smelled this little kids butt...he had popped lol...it woke me up out of my sleep...but i couldn’t say anything because i wasnt completely awake lol...well i finally woke up dad and i talked a bit and then out of no where...
THE DOCTOR COMES IN!...(they said the surgery would last about and hour and half...and man it had only been 45 minutes!)

He came to us and told us how the surgery went...WONDERFULLY...(his words)..we were really glad to hear that...and soon a nurse would be out to get us so we could go and see our boy..

well we walked back to the room...excited to see how he was doing..and of course we had to pass all these other little kids..which made my heart break...and he was at the very end of the line...laying in the nurse's lap sipping out of his sippy...and holding on tight to his puppy..awake none the less!

The nurse instructed us to sit down and love him basically...so that’s exactly what we did..

its really weird how he stayed awake long enough to see us..and then fell right back to sleep...dad said maybe kpp didnt think he was okay until we were back there..

after all thats went on yesterday...kpp going out like a light...him even having surgery...dad turns to me and says lol...(me ad-libbing our conversation)

dad: im having a real problem with this...
me: what?
dad: that door over there says pull??
me: what?
dad: that door says pull...that’s not cool..
me: what?? out of all that has gone on today you are worried about the door saying PULL? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
dad: yeah this is worrying me! hahahahaha..these are doctors and nurses...why do they need a sign on a door that says pull...
me: yeah looks like someone just stuck that up there...get the camera and take a picture lol..this is going right on my blog lol..
dad: *taking pictures* hahahahahahah



we have a looooong laugh...it kinda lightening my mood up a bit and that was my first smile of the day...a door that said pull lol...its funny how he has a way of being sooo strong and sooo unmoved by things...but this door that had a sticker that said pull...made him uneasy...lol...crazy! huh? lol

well they let us go home rather quickly...and all is well...we get home...kpp is still kinda out of it..and still kinda weak...



but i managed to wake him a bit and have him drink a little bit...because i know he was soo thirsty and sooo tired!...i would’ve been...

he finally wakes up a bit and i put on "HIS MOVIE" and he sits with dad....


after a long day..me and dad are getting tired and it comes to the point where he needs to go home and get some rest..and kpp and i need to sleep...well dad leaves but before he does...kpp does this little weird thing lol...like he didnt want to be left alone with me...kinda hurt my feelings lol but oh well..he is sick lol ill give him the benefit of the doubt!! lol...but dad reminds me that he could eat some crackers...and he leaves...

well we get ready to get in bed...i lay the crackers on the bed beside him (he is still groggy) and leave out of the room to get some other things we may need during the night....well this is what i come back to...

kpp grubbing on the crackers lol...he was soooo hungry...he had probably eaten 3 before i could get back...he had another 4 before laying down to go to sleep...its soo crazy how neither one of us thought about crackers all day lol..my poor baby was sooo hungry..lol...

but im soo happy everything went well..i mean everything...his surgeon was soo nice and explained everything..and all the nurses and all the helpers....i really wouldnt have wanted it any other way...

kpp, again, is doing GREAT...HE IS A WONDERFUL SON!...
