Dear Diary Friday...

Happy 4th of July to everyone! Enjoy your day and stay safe!

The surgery for my Daddy went really well. They repaired the ruptured hernia and then put everything back into it's place. They cleaned the cyst and removed anything that looked "cyst-like". The doctor feels really good that nothing that they saw would be of any concern and there should be no futher problems. We were at the surgery center by 7:00 am and home by 10:00. I fed him breakfast and put him in his chair with a Lortab and he slept most of the afternoon. He experienced some pain in the afternoon, but I fed him a large late lunch, gave him another Lortab, put an ice pack on his boo-boo and he slept more. By this morning, he is up and about and you would never know he had surgery. He said that the ice pack took ALL of the swelling down and he has no pain today. Thanking the Goddess for all of her blessings on this one!!!

Today is shaping up to be great. I am spending every moment of this day with Dylan and we have tons of fun stuff planned. We are seeing a movie, window shopping, eating, and just being together.
