what a day....

Today was the day of surgeries for the Facer family (at least two of us) Andrew had badly broken his leg in Feburary and one of the screws that he had in his leg was sticking out. It would really hurt him if it got bumped so his dr decided that it has been enough time to take it out. (and he kindly squeezed us in before the end of the year since our deductable is already paid) It was an outpatient deal and it really only took about 15 minutes, and about an hour after making sure he was ok to go home.
Also my poor accident prone Tammy had stepped on some glass about a month ago and I thought we had it all out, but yesterday it started hurting her so much so Andrew took her into the doctor to see what was wrong. The instacare took ex rays and they could see something in her foot but couldn't figure out why it was on the other side of her foot (they transposed the image somehow) So today we took her back in for more ex-rays at a podiatrist and he had to go in and dig out a piece of glass.
Anyway both are doing well now. They are hurting a little but nothing that they can't handle. Neither one has wanted to take anything for the pain. The doctor cleaned it up and gave us the screw that was in his leg. (maybe he figured that we paid enough for it we should keep it) anyway it is pretty interesting though, I guess in a strange way.


The sweetest thing just happened with Hayley a few minutes ago. She just came up to me and said "I wan see Grandma" It is especaily sweet since both of her Grandmas passed away before she was born. I was very lucky to have known Andrews mom even though she died before we were married, and Hayley was born 7 months after my mom died. So naturally I got out some pictures of our moms to show her and she did the cutest things like kiss them and tell them that she loves them but my favorite thing is that out of the blue she said "dey wiff Jesus" It really made me feel like crying. You know what they say about the faith of a child.

  2. I hope all recover well. That is so sweet about what Hayley said I started to cry reading it. Sometimes I think they say these things to help us more than for us to help them understand.
