Terry's latest

Well, Terry had his 4th surgery today for his 'butt' issue. :) They put a plug in and the goal for it is to adhere to the tissue around it and then dissolve...hence closing the fistula. That's the goal anyway. He's more uncomfortable than sore at this point, but he's also very heavily medicated! LOL He's been given instructions to not 'scoot or sit' for a good long while. Perhaps up to a month...which could be interesting to say the least. He can only lay and stand at this point. So we'll see how long it lasts and how well he handles it all.

The boys stayed home with mom while Terry and I went to St Louis. They helped clean house and were so excited when we got home. They met us in the driveway and hardly let Terry out of the van! Mom will most likely stay here through Sunday, when dad will come get her. But that is all dependent on how Terry seems to be doing.

That's all for now....time for bed! What a long day! :)

Your poor husband. Aye-yie-yie. Not scooting or sitting for a month would be interesting for anyone.... Good for you about handling it well and constantly being there with your precious attitude. :) I know he has to feel blessed that you are his wife. I'm also super-thankful for you that your folks were able to help out with child care. Pllllllllease do NOT take that for granted.

Spring is GORGEOUS here. It takes my breath away numerous times a day. And -- it's fun to feel 'chilly' again; in AZ we were already not ever feeling chilly, only warm or more, which I hate.
