Yesterday was William’s sinus surgery.  It was a very long day.  We arrived one hour before at 11:30…then they told us they were an hour behind schedule.  After an hour and 1/2 they said 45 more minutes.  You guessed it…3 1/2 hours later they took him in.  He went through surgery very well.  I was proud of him because he is as chicken of medical things as I am and he did great!  He had some extra bleeding after so recovery took a little longer.  By the time we left, we were in Atlanta traffic (he had his surgery through Scottish Rite out patient center).  To make a long story short we got home around 9:00 pm!  Today he has been on the sofa playing video games…his favorite thing.  He is doing very well.  By the afternoon he was wanting to go outside and play.  Kids amaze me at how fast they bounce back.  He will have part two of the surgery Jan 5.

I haven’t been feeling too well the past couple of days.  My pluse is ringing in my ears, my heart beats really fast at the least little activity, and I am tired.  My guess is that it is my red count dropping that is causing all of these new things.  Yesterday after they took William back for surgery, Bill asked them for a bed for me.  I got a pillow, and one of those warm blankets…the only good thing about surgery…a bed, and a quiet dark room.  It helped to rest and they were very kind to me but the day still took it’s toll.  I slept in today and then took a nap.  I felt much better this morning but there are still some different type symptoms this time around.  I get my red count shot on Thursday and I think that will help once I get over the bone pain from the shot.  I do have some really good news…the papsmear they did last doctors visit came back good!!!  I cryed when I heard.  I guess I didn’t realize how much that had been weighing on my mind.  What a relief!  Thanks for all of your continued prayers for me and my family.  Only one more chemo…if I can just get there…
