its amazing how one random medical procedure can bring people together.
danny had surgery today. it was diagnosed as an umbilical hernia and was going to take anywhere between 2-6 weeks recovery time.
this random surgery prevented him from coming up to tallahassee today for amy's birthday, so it sucked, but it needed to be taken care of ASAP.
when they went into surgery today they realized it wasnt a hernia, thankfully, instead it was just a weird cyst that would have less than a week recovery time.
of course i was worried about the procedure.
i do fine with surgeries and hospital visits and weird medical diagnosis' but not when im not there to witness them.
waiting by the phone for a phone call that says everything is okay is the most nerve raking thing in the entire world.
but i was getting regularly updated about danny's surgery by his sister. and then his dad called me afterwards to give me the 411 on the whole post diagnosis.
so of course i am overly relieved and extremely happy that everything went ridiculously smooth.
what i love the most is that his family knew who danny cared about the most to contact. me, just me. and to top it all of danny asked if i had been updated when he woke up afterwards.
i love technology and medical advancements. etc. it has been able to save my brother from dying. my mom from dying. my dad from never being able to walk again. caleb not dying from lymphoma. and danny not getting ill.
so be thankful and never ever go day without saying i love you to the people you care about the most. you never know when random things, no matter how small they are, occur and still can scare the bejezus out of you.
