Sunday [not so] Funday

We unfortunatly spent pretty much the entire weekend at the hospital. As I said in my last post my sister has been there for almost a week now.

She was scheduled for surgery Sunday morning...she went it...all seemed to go as planned but I knew something wasn't right when it was taking hours upon hours for her to get out of recovery. After about 4.5 hours of waiting, Ryan & I decided to head home for a bit as Henry was getting a bit restless. My mom stayed at the hospital waiting for any news.

A couple hours later I get a call from my mom who was crying hysterically. Apparently my sister was bleeding internally and had to go back into surgery for the second time in one day. Ryan finished mowing the grass and Ryan's parents [thankfully] agreed to stay at our house and watch Henry so we didn't have to lug him up there again.

We got to see her a few hours later and I can honestly say it was one of the worst experiences of my life. She has had no color in her face and was SCREAMING in pain. I, of course, started getting mad at the nurses who seemed to be taking their sweet time getting her more pain meds, which she finally got and her pain was under control.

I am back at work today but will be heading up there on my lunch break and after work to visit. Any extra thoughts & prayers would be appreciated.
