Mom had Her Surgery Yesterday

[alynwa]

The doctor told me it went better than he had anticipated.  It certainly didn't take as long as he originally thought.  I had to wait almost five hours for her to go from Recovery to the ICU.  When I saw her she looked better than I thought she would; the whole idea of vascular surgery on an 82 year old had me hoping for the best and trying to prepare for the worst.  Thank God, the worst was not yesterday.

Thank you, Cousins, for the prayers and positive energy directed my way.  I'm sure it made a difference.  It kept me calm enough to write a picfic while I was in the waiting room.  Have laptop, will write!

Now, if I can only wrap my head around my NaNoWriMo challenge.  Oy, don't know if that's going to happen.
