I spent a lot of hours at the Florida Hospital in Altamonte Springs, after my mom had surgery to have a thyroid removed off her aortic arch. She had her thyroid removed 10 years ago, but through a series of CAT scans, PET scans, and ultrasounds, it was discovered that her thyroid had regenerated and was causing a lot of problems. We were all very very shocked.
This hospital has some interesting 'waiting areas'. It is a Seventh Day Adventist Hospital.
One night when we were about to head home, Todd discovered his car had a flat time. Several days later we were headed to church in his truck, and we had a flat time on the interstate. It was a very interesting week for us!
My brothers think they have found 'the one' for me........
Hmmm well, I suppose he does have SOME good qualities about him...but I don't think he is exactly what mom and dad have in mind. (or me!)
Bear waiting while mom is in surgery.......
Todd napping... along with studying...along with waiting....
Mom had to have IVs in both arms, and a Arterial line put in before surgery.
The Arterial line was a new experience.....along with having her chest cut open.
These were part of a 'fun package for us'...
Mom is getting rather tired of surgeries!
This was in the waiting room, mom's sugery took about 4.5 hours. We were able to follow along with this display.
We had Donuts for breakfast, and then Wendy's for lunch. We had to wait a long time
Dad paced........ mom said he would!
And he paced.... Mom knew!
