All Done!

FInally, after a 3 months of anticipation...Ty's surgery is done.

Nate and I left with Ty to be at Hershey at 11:30. We get there a bit early, and the surgery center is ahead of schedule. We checked in, verified information, waited about 5 minutes and then Ty was taken back to the pre op area. Ty was GREAT. He got out of his clothes and into the gown, put their snazzy red surgical non slippy socks on. Nate and I met the surgeon and the anestesioligst... and off they wheeled him into the O.R. All of this happened about 15 minutes before his scheduled surgery time. The entire time Randy did not show his face. Nate and I were escorted back out of the pre op area into the waiting room. 10 minutes go by and Randy shows up. At first he was confused, when he asked where Ty was I answered that they already took him back. Randy thought that maybe he could still go back and see Ty, but I clarified for him that he was already in the O.R. He was ticked, but I didn't feel sorry for him. He KNEW what time Ty's surgery was. Then he blamed 83 for the delay (Man alive! Nothing is EVER his fault)

So we wait a bit over an hour and I guess Randy got too restless and got on his cell phone and walked out of the waiting room. As if the doctor knew, as soon and the door closed from Randy walking outside, the surgeon walked into the waiting room to talk to us. He answered all of our questions and let us know that everything went fairly well. The doctor walked out, in walked Randy.

So Randy managed to miss meeting Ty's surgeon from the VERY beginning of this process.

Okay, now I am mad...I just wrote out this HHHUUUGGGEEE post about the rest, but when I went to publish it...blogger was unavailable. I am NOT retyping it all again. So, bottom line is, Ty is okay.
