So my mom had her surgery. Everything went well and I guess they were doing more then just the hysterectomy. It was a long day at the hospital. I was up at 4:30 in the morning because I couldn't sleep very well. We were all up and at the hospital at 9am. They checked her in and we all went back to the little waiting/prep area. We joked and laughed and as time wore on, Mom was getting more and more nervous. By Noon-12:30 they were ready for her. At this point I had been up for about 8 hours and hadn't eaten a single thing. My sister Sam went to get food and Mom's boyfriend said he had some things he had to run and do. That left me with my support person, the only one of my friends to come and sit with me all day.

Now I know that people have lives and i know that not everyone can drop what they're doing to some and blow a whole day of just sitting and waiting to hear news, but on the other hand I don't ask much of my friends. Hell I only asked 3 people to come up and sit with me. Only one showed up. I could tell she was bored out of her mind the whole time, but she did it for me and I don't know how i would have done it without her there.

Anyways, she went back into surgery at 12-12:30 and she didn't get out till around 5:30. We got the update from the Doctor and she said we would be able to her for another hour so that she had time to wake up from being put under and blah blah blah. Well at 6:30 my support needed to leave, so she was gone and we still needed to wait to head up to recovery.

At around 7:30 we decided that we were just going to leave and go up to her room even if she wasn't in it yet. Upon arriving at the room, a friend from Church showed up to see how we were holding up. Around 8pm we were all finally settled into the room and so was my Mom. She was out of it most of the night, because like hell we're all gonna leave here to be alone in the hospital all alone.

As the night wore on, I got a total of 3 hours sleep that night. Woke up every so often to see how things were going. I stayed up from the worry and what not....well now she's home and she needs just as much help...but i'm soooo tired i don't know what i'm gonna do :/
