The Operation Was A Success!

Today Robert went in for his hernia operation - he had a laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. He didn't sleep too well last night - he was a bit nervous about today. His doctor said that everything went well. His doctor even gave him a video of the operation. Weird, yes! That's my hubby though! He had to know what the operation looked like. Me - too grossed out to watch most of it. We got home from the hospital around 4 pm. He was a bit drugged up for a while, but he's beginning to finally get his head all cleared up and feel more like normal. Right now he's not in too much pain, just some oozing out from the incisions. His left leg is still a bit numb and he was a bit worried about it for a while, but it's just now started to get some feeling back in it. Yeah! He's going to have to take it easy for a few days, but he's going to be just fine. Here's a great shot of my poor baby! Everyone always looks smashing in their hospital gowns.

I think he looks great in a hospital gown too! Maybe it is that winning smile?!!
Hope you both have a relaxing weekend!
