The shower not only keeps a person clean, but reduces anxiety. We've all done it. Sit in the shower and just think. It's calm and soothing. I did that last night at about 4am because I couldn't sleep and I did need a shower. Now it's 9am and I didn't wake up for my dad's surgery. He tried to get me out of bed, but I cannot even remember anyone coming in. Only my phone ringing from Mikey at 8:30am and my surprise that no one came and got me.. *which I know now is not true*

I've mentioned before that my dad has diverticulosis.. Today they are resectioning his colon/intestines. I didn't think it was that big of a deal and have my own procedure to worry about for tomorrow (colonoscopy/endoscopy). Today I start my liquid clensing diet.. awesome. But apparently my dad has a risk of infection and will not be able to eat for at least 4days. Here I was being selfish thinking about my one day and a half of not eating and he has 4! He will have to dispose anything via a tube out of his nose! My poor daddy!!! Some people are afraid of him dying, but I don't have that feeling. You know, that feeling of someone dying. So I think we're in the clear. I will keep you posted of his progress as well as mine.
