Saturday was a long day.
A crazy day.
I can't believe all that happened.
I was woken up early by a call from my mom.
She sounded horrible. She said she needed to be rushed to the doctor.
Her stitches from her hysterectomy in December (DECEMBER!!) had still not healed and had basically exploded.
I will spare you the graphic details, though I was fully exposed to them as I was in the exam room with her,
but she had to be rushed into emergency surgery.
She received a botched surgery from an incredibly rude and thoughtless doctor in December, and
Saturday she was fixed by a wonderful, trustworthy doctor.
It was all a very scary experience, and we are so thankful for that doctor.
She went home from the hospital yesterday and is doing very well.
So... that was one 8-hour experience on Saturday.
About an hour after I left her hospital room (her boyfriend had arrived by then),
I took Daniel's parents to the Boise State spring scrimmage.
It was lackluster, at best, but a good time to spend with Daniel's parents
That was Saturday experience #2.
Immediately afterward, Daniel's mom and I went and grabbed dinner and saw Titanic.
We saw it on the 100 year anniversary.
Of course we sobbed through it.
I'm a bawl-bag at any kind of chick flicks.
Heck, I even cry during AT&T commercials.
You can imagine what a mess I was during Titanic, even though I've already seen it countless times.
That was Saturday experience #3.
I got home around midnight on Saturday.
It. Was. A. Long. Day.
Looking back, I'm so grateful it's over,
I'm grateful for the care my mom received,
I'm grateful for everyone who prayed for her,
I'm grateful for time spent with family,
and I'm so grateful for each day.

Oh my goodness! I am so glad your mom got good care this time!! Although from the sound of it there shouldn't have been a "this time"! GRR! I hope your mama heals up and is back to her old self very soon!
Woah! I hope your mom can heal up soon, I hate careless doctors. There are too many who don't care enough or at all about their patients. My husband recruits doctors, and I can't believe how horrible some are!
Oh wow. What a long Saturday!!
...my day wasn't nearly as exciting, but I was still up until 5 in the morning on Sunday...I had a project to finish!!
Glad your Momma is doing better...that was scary, I bet!
That is crazy!! Glad she is doing better! Cute outfit!
Glad your momma is okay.
We saw the Titantic Saturday night too. The 915p showing. It was so eerie knowing that IT was seriously happening exactly 100 years ago. That story is just so captivating...
wishing you an uneventful week! ;)
Glad your mom is okay - that sounds just scary!
Oh my gosh, I'm so glad your mom is ok! That's terrible and scary to know that there are some not so lovely docs out there. :(
And goodness, lady! I bet you went home and collapsed. Just crying in a movie like that exhausts me. I can't imagine the whole day. I'd be in zombie mode.
How scary for your Mom, Im glad to hear everything is all fixed and better now!
Happy Monday.

What a great blog that you have. Fantastic outfit. I just became a new follower to your blog. Hope you have a great weekend!
So glad you found a wonderful doctor for your mum. Also glad that you were able to have good experiances on a day that started like that.
Wow crazy! I hope your mom is okay. Glad that you were there to help her out like that.
I've been tempted to go see Titanic but not sure I really want to watch a movie that long in 3D. I saw it three times in the theatre back in 1997/8 when it was first out, so it would be super fun to see it again like that. I just wish they hadn't released it in 3D!
