thank you just isn't enough....

how can I ever thank all of you for your kind wishes and prayers
that you so lovingly sent to me and my daughter
~
can you all come over for a dance party
with cake and margaritas
?
oh
and
hugs too
I'm really really good at hugs
~
seriously
~all of you~
are
AMAZING
simply
amazing
~~~~~
and
the smiley chic above is doing fantastically well
and
sends hugs to all of you
too
~~
this photo was 10 hours before her surgery
~reason 213 to always have your point and shoot in your purse~
but honestly
she looked almost this good afterwards
~~
1o.5 hours after her surgery
she was discharged
and
without the aid of the wheel chair that the nurse kept asking her about
she slowly
walked beside me out of the hospital and all the way to the parking garage
~~
kids these days

  2. So good to hear that your daughter is doing well. I'm glad she got to go home afterwords. Back when I had my appendix removed I had to stay in the hospital for a week. I would have rested much better at home as I'm sure your daughter will now. Here's hoping your weekend is a great one.

  4. That is great news! I know you are relieved. It must have been very hard to not have John there and I bet he was going nuts not to be there.

    Hugs to you all.

  8. You two are amazing! I can't believe how great Cate looks while she's still intact! I wish she would have taken a picture of her mother UNDONE..
    I don't dance well, but will try.
    Also, Mango margaritas are my favorite. Love to you all, SHELL
