A Day at the Hospital Blog Update

i slept with Sir last night and was up at 4 am to make it to the hospital....my old job required me to be up at 4 each morning, i now remember how much i hated it!  Met my sister and her girlfriend at the hospital and hung out with her, helping her with the family medical information she didn't know.  My sister is one of the single most amazing people i know.  They took her to surgery at 7:05 and told us that the had reserved the OR for 2.5 hours but thought it would only require about 1 to 1.5 hours.  Of course, 2.5 hours later they let us know she was out of surgery and that everything had gone according to plan.  The did a complete hysterectomy and removed 3 fibroid  cysts, 2 of them were softball sized and the third golf ball size.  i don't know how she managed to hold out this long, she had to have been in horrible pain, but thanks to our wonderful healthcare system she has waited 1.5 years.  We've taken to calling the cysts her "alien babies" this is what her girlfriend posted to Facebook earlier today:


"We are pleased to announce arrival of the Elias triplets - Jill Marie Elias proudly gave birth to 2 softball-sized fibroids (yet to be named) & 1 golfball-sized fibroid (we may name her Little Lizzy). Mother is resting well in recovery room, alien babies have been whisked away - foreva!!! Thanks everyone - I'll let ya know when we know more :)"

We went to the floor and took turns watching her sleep.  And here's where i need to eat crow....my father was there and was extremely well behaved, i know my sister was stressing about him being their and i was quite proud of him for being so mature, not his usual nature.  Her girlfriend is spending the night with her and i'll head back in the morning.  i really like her girlfriend, she's always been so positive and upbeat...and she's Wiccan!  Sir, bless his heart, took me out to dinner.  He really is the best!

Just got a text that she is resting comfortably and that her girlfriend will give her another hug and "love you" from me.

Tomorrow is busy, hospital, groceries, packing, and then an education/play party...Sir said that if i would like Sir Joe to use the violet wand on me that it would be ok as long as he is present, usually i'm not a big fan but we'll see, it's not that it hurts me, more that it does NOTHING for me.

With that i'm off to shower, catch up on e-mail and phone calls to everyone who is messaging to see how she is.
