Surgery....

Longest day of our lives....so Andy finally got to have his foot surgery yesterday. The hospital paid for it which is why he got to do it. We needed him to be recovered too before the baby came. He got his left foot operated on and they took out the dead bone that was dying and replaced it with synthetic stuff and fused 3 bones together then covered it with a plate and screws. He has to have a pain pump for 5 days and stay off of it competely for 6-8 weeks. No weight or it will undo everything. It'll be fun...NOT!

We got at the hospital at 9am and he didn't even go into surgery until 11:30am because the doctor's first surgery went longer than expected. Then the doctor got called to an emergency when he was supposed to consult with me and then I didn't get to see Andy until 2ish and we didn't leave until almost 3:30pm. But all went well so Andy should recover and be pain free once all is healed. Thank goodness! :D
