Mat Update

After all the drama Mat finally had his surgery on June 10th. The alarm clock didn't go off and we woke up at 5:50, we had to be at the hospital at 5:30 so we were a little rushed. It was raining that morning and when it rains here well people are idiots. We got to the hospital in 20 minutes, without any accidents which was a miracle.

The good thing about that was that by the time we got down to the surgery we didn't have that much of a wait. The anesthesiologist that we had requested wasn't able to be there, however we got an amazing doctor in his stead.

The surgery took and an hour and a half. When the doctor came out he told us that there was damage to the bladder that they weren't expecting. It boiled down to if we had waited any longer we would have lost him.

He will have to have another surgery in about 5 years, and hopefully that will be the end of it.

After three days in the hospital we got an early release, and he was able to come home.

He is now doing great, however bored to tears. However we aren't letting him do much.

Mike's Father's Day present

For Father's Day Mike got a Blu Ray Surround System. He has been going through all of our movies one by one to see which ones he wants to get in Blu Ray. In the last four days we have seen 300, Two Towers, Troy, X Men. The only movie that he hasn't watched is Transformers because we went to 5 stores on the day he got the system just to get that one.

So pissed off.....

Just got a phone call that we have to reschedule Mat's surgery. I am so mad right now. When I called the doctors office to reschedule it the lady was upset at me like it was MY fault.

Okay so I stepped away from this for a bit as I was so upset. The surgery has been rescheduled for next Tuesday at 10:40.
