Rob has been saying
for years
that your appendix
is a ticking time bomb,
good for nothing
but turning on you
when you least expect it.
I, however, have been
thinking he's
paranoid.
Until monday
when he called me
and sad he thought he
had a hernia...
then tuesday we
took him to care now
because the pain
was worse.
they of course
did tests and said
go to the ER,
you have appendicitis.
and who doesnt
love a good
"i told you so"
moment with
their spouse?
so i took him to
the ER
and we waited
and waited..
approx. 7 hours
for a surgeon
to take it out.
and one
finally did.
and we slept
at the hospital that night.
well, rob slept,
i sat in a chair
and stared at the
beeping light.
so now
I've gotten rob up
our stairs,
rented him some movies
got him some meds,
and now he is relaxing
in the recliner.
and on a
smaller scale,
i have smashed
my fingers in a door
of some sort
every day
the last 5 days...
i need to work on my
hand-eye
coordination..

Yes! Rob is lucky to have you around, Nurse Caroline.
It HAS been a while since I've seen you. And even longer since I've seen Rob. I miss you guys. I'm glad to hear that he's on the mend and hopefully up for finals....
