The surgery went well. He ended up having to open me up and remove my whole ovary with the tumor. Apparently when he put the camera in it was a mess in there. The cyst had semi-tortioned over the ovary a couple of times, which would explain the pain, and so there was a lot of gunk and dried blood around the ovary. Unfortunately this means my recovery will be a little longer. My mom leaves tomorrow so I am a bit freaked out about that. I just can't imagine being able to pick up Sam yet. I don't want to bust open any wounds. Funny story about my surgery. The nurse and the nurse anethesist came to get me to wheel me to the operating room. I didn't have glasses or contacts in so I couldn't see anything. Somehow they asked me where I was from and I said Idaho Falls, the nurse said, "so am I!" She then asked what school and year I graduated and low and behold we graduated together. It was Cory Tremayne, she was on the gymnastics team with me. Small world. We were talking and then next thing I know I was waking up from surgery. I still don't remember what we were talking about! The boys have been having a good time with Grandma. Sam learned how to say Grandma right before my mom came so that's been cute to watch, my mom loves it! Today they were a bit ornery I think they are tired of having a weird routine. I just want to get back to normal and move on with the summer. Here are some pictures. The boys were fried and ready for bed so they don't look so happy.
I'll miss this!
