A Night in the E.R

So yesterday Jeremy's mom, Dawn, was in a LOT of pain. She went to the doctor's and after some poking and prodding and whatnot, she was sent to the E.R. to have her appendix removed. She had to wait for about 4 hours for the surgeon, who was at the time performing another surgery. She finally was operated on around 10 pm last night. We were there last night while she waited (Jeremy and his friend gave her a blessing) then Jeremy took Courtney and I home so I could put her to bed. But we went back this morning, and she's doing really well. Jeremy is actually over there right now so he can bring her home. I really didn't think she would agree to any pictures, so I didn't even bother to bring the camera, haha. But everything went fine, she's doing well, she'll probably be drained and sore for a while, but she's doing great. I helped Courtney make her a 'get better' card before we left yesterday. Pretty, isn't it?

I hope she gets feeling better soon! I can't imagine the pain she must have been in. I'm sure the card helped a LOT!

I'm glad Jeremy was able to give her a blessing. I hope she heals fast! I'm sure the card made her smile.

That is the best card I've ever seen. Courtney has talent! I'm glad you guys are there to help your mominlaw out, it would be hard to have to try and get better all alone.
