Hospital visits

This weekend was crazy. Friday night we went to the OIT basketball game! we love going because our team is soooooo good! we love watching every chance we get! Jeff made new friends on Friday and they were asking for us to come back the next day but we do have to share the tickets so we weren't able to go. (They are a couple of "young" guys) Saturday Jeff woke up complaining that is stomach hurt, he still went to work, and worked all day long, he didn't eat anything and when we got home he went straight to bed, after being in bed for a few hours i had him go downstairs because he was freezing, so i warmed up some blankets and put him on the couch, well he looked up on webmd to see if he could figure out what was wrong with him, it said he might have a appendicitis, so he called his dad who has had to take 2 other children to get their's out. His dad said we should go to the ER, we both hate having to go unless it is an EMERGENCY. i was talking with a friend who's aunt is a nurse and she said to have him push on it and pull away real quick to see if it hurt worse. Well he did (had to make him) and he freaked out so we jumped in the car and headed up there, we were in the ER for about 2 hours and they came and told us that the OR doctor was on his way and get ready because you are going in for surgery. Once the OR doctor got there it was about 5 minutes later and they were rolling him in for surgery. After waiting an hour with his dad (which was nice) the doctor came out and said it was diffenantly an appendicitis, so it was a good thing we went when we did so it didn't burst. We thought for sure that Jeff would be able to come home Sunday, after spending the night and only getting 2 hours of sleep i was excited to get him home and take care of him there, well Sunday morning he calls and says they are keeping him for another night, so another night in the hospital another couple grand and a very uncomfortable, not able to sleep night. Jeff got up about 2:30 and woke me up because he thought i looked so uncomfortable and so then i got up and slept in the hospital bed the rest of the night with him. He was finally able to go home this morning and is doing better, but still sick and has a bad headache. This week is going to be crazy, we were supposed to be packing and moving before thanksgiving but now we are never moving now! just kidding, we will move just not soon. from tomorrow til Sunday i will have family here and everything so the rest of the week it's going to be crazy!
