We were allowed to leave that hospital room after 30 days...Finally New Years Eve at like 8pm.

It was a pretty big deal for us to be able to be home with the kids for New Years seeing we were not home for Christmas.

I was very brief on my last posting because my head was doing jumping jacks!

That whole time sitting watching over him not knowing if he was going to make it, and I only cried 1 time on a 1 hr. break in the I.C.U. and it was to someone I never call "Which is weird" but I'm glad Angie was there for me. 

After that I held it all in again. I didn't have time to be upset, and my mind was refusing to believe that he would die. I just kept saying God sent us there in enough time that he didn't die..There for he just couldn't die.

I actually felt as if I was stuck in that movie "Freaky Friday" It felt like a bad dream that I wasn't waking from.

So they did scans and said it was a 1 in a million kinda thing where his Gallbladder had stones and some moved into the Liver and blocked the Duct to his Small Intestine. So he needed his Gallbladder removed, but they needed to do an ERCP first to remove the stones from the Liver before they mov ... Read more »

As of yesterday I have a permanent *SMILE*
A very nice lady that didn't even know me just handed me
a 61 key Yamaha Keyboard for FREE! I offered to earn it,
but she just handed it to me.
 
She said she got good use out of it.
I'm not used to being handed something for nothing.
So I can only imagine what my face looked like LoL!
 
Now I need to learn to read music...Any suggestions?
