He Lives!

Whitney had his surgery Tuesday. We got there at 6:30am and they took Whitney to do all his pre-op stuff. Kim and Julie went with us and that was a blessing. I had Sarah there so it was nice to have a couple extra set of hands. The surgery took 2 1/2 hours. The doctor told me it went textbook perfect and there were no complications. They just wanted to observe him for the next 6 hours. This pic is Whitney right after the surgery when they let me in to see him.This is Whitney 5 seconds later.
They moved him to an observation section of the hospital. When it was time for him to get up and move, he got dizzy and his blood presure. They noticed his leg where they went in was bleeding so they laid him back down and redressed the wound. We were able to leave an hour and 1/2 later. We got home about 7:30pm. It was a long day at the hospital. A friend had watched the boys for most of that time and then Shannon went and picked them for a couple of hours until we got home. They were such blessings on Tuesday. I didn't have to worry about the boys at all. I knew they were safe and having fun. In fact today, I took cookies over to Julliann to say Thank you and when we got there, Jared told me to leave. I think that tells you where he wants to spend his time. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. Now is a good time to call Whit. He'll be home until Wednesday evening recouping. We love you all.
