I received a phone call from Hula's mom a few minutes ago (6:45pmish) and she told me that Hula's surgery went well today.  She is still in recovery but only because there is not a bed open but hopefully one will open soon!  The doctor should have reserved a room for her but a hospital isn't like a hotel, huh? that would make too much sense  ;-)  Hula's mom also said that Hula is sleepy still but is doing well. 

Please keep the thoughts and prayers coming because this was a tough surgery to have done, especially emotionally.  I thought I was prepared for mine three years ago until the nurse handed me the "consent to sterilize" form and it hit me like a MACK truck.   Hula is strong and an incredible lady but she needs support right now.  If you haven't already, please go over to her site and show her some love for when she returns home (in a few days). 

After she's home and settled and I have the surgery on my right leg (just to extend my calf muscle) on Tuesday, it's going to be fun to have her home recovering at the same time.  We're goofy enough without pain medication, can you imagine how much FUN we're going to have on pain meds?  Yep, it's going to be a laugh fest.  I might take it easy on her since laughing will hurt her more than it will hurt me... oh heck, I'll be nice and just be myself.  *evil grin*
