A Tale of Two Surgeries

Bryan and I do not get to go on too many dates lately. With Bryan's busy schedule and my exhaustion level and the kids, we just don't find the time to go. It's such a shame!!!


However, Bryan went out of his way Friday night to get my parents to watch our kids and have that special "alone" time together. Where did he take me????


TX Med Clinic because both of us were suffering from staph infections!!!! How pathetic is that?? Bryan has a very serious infection in his foot and I was a minor infection in my toosh. We both left right after work on Friday and met each other at the clinic. They put us in the same room and we saw the same doc and delivered the news to each of us - "You both have staph and both will require surgery." Oh no!!!!!!!!!


An hour later, we were both discharged and at the check out center, the technician said he would combine our bills so we would only have to pay once. Bryan looked over at me and grinned and said "Honey, this will be my treat." Aren't I lucky girls?? Such a gentleman!!!


We had our follow-up yesterday with the doc and Bryan is still in poor shape. His foot is very swollen and causing him a lot of pain. His incision needed re-packing and let's just say that I have NEVER seen Bryan in so much pain. I thought he was going to hit the doc. It was awful. Luckily, doc said we caught mine early so I was discharged with strict instructions to keep taking my meds. BUT poor B has to go back again on Tuesday.


Always interesting in our house. I spent all weekend washing towels, sheets, clothes, etc. Then the rest of the time sterilizing everything in the bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, etc.


Fun times!!
