She is feeling a little sore and sorry tonight

I had the day off work today.... I had to look after my baby... Not that she is a baby anymore, but somehow, Mums are still needed for this,

This morning saw us going through these gates
Past this beautiful old building...
to the entrance of this building.
We caught the lift down to the first floor and headed to this admission room
We actually drove down, although I don't know why because we couldn't find a park and had to drive back towards home and walk down the road to the hospital.

We were early and they were running a little late so we had to wait for almost an hour until Chloe was taken in to get ready
She had to put these every so cute slippers on
We still had to wait to see the anaesthetist so we sat and waited another half hour or so and she played with this
and I played with my phone too.
They came and collected her and I took off to go to the Chemist to get her prescription filled and then headed back to the hospital where I sat and waited. She took longer than most to wake up so I had to wait and extra hour or so. They say it is all good, it helps in the healing process. I must admit I felt a little anxious for a moment or two, as the last time we got news like that, that one of our kids was talking longer to wake from his surgery, there was real drama, with him arresting and spending three days in the ICU at the hospital. Deep down I knew she would be OK, but it is funny how those feelings from so long ago can surface even if it is only for a split second or more.
Anyway I sat and waited for a good hour or more and then they took me into see her
She was trying to wake up and still had drips hanging out of her, and icepacks around her jaws.
She had to be able to keep this down....
And then she had to be able to keep this lot down as well
She had to be able to get up and get dressed and move around without feeling sick before they would take this out of her arm.
So we arrived at the hospital at 9.45am this morning and we headed home at 4pm this afternoon. The pain is starting to set in now. Praying that she has no bleeding and she gets a good night sleep. She has the next few days off to recover....
