Sugery is over on right leg

Randy is recovering from his long surgery in his room. His ankle is hurting and he is asking for pain meds. There are 17 screws, plates and wires in his right leg. More than in the left leg. He is hurting so much. He says that his legs feel like they are still moving. He is having 'trippy dreams' about it. The nurse thinks they are finished with his right leg as far as surgery goes. There will be x-rays taken in a little while.

Craig Walentine has been at the house building our ramp. His grandson Jordan was just released from the icu in nevada. That sweet man. I had no idea he was going through his own trama at the same time! I told him he could leave and go. But he insisted that he wanted to stay here and keep busy. That really touched my heart. Eddy Bradly was helping him out as well.

The case worker nurse said to me today (before surgery was finished) that if surgery goes well Randy could come home as soon as Tuesday. I was both excited and a bit nervous as to how we would get our projects completed in time. I made some calls and we will hope for the best. There is a possibility it won't be that soon. Always variables with post operations with complications. Let's all pray that he heals well.

Here is the view out Randy's window. He can't see out but it paints a good picture of how I feel inside.
