While Eric was recovering Mason ends up having his appendix rupture. So, I loaded him up and back to the ER we went. I thought this would mean emergency surgery and maybe a day or two in the hospital. Of course not! They have decided that now it is to dangerous to open up the abdomen when it has all that infection in it, so they sedated him and put in a pic line and also drained the abscesses in his belly. Then after a 5 day stay in the hospital he was sent home with the pic line and medicine that had to be infused over a two hour period every day for seven days. Sigh. Mason has now had his pic line removed and has been scheduled for surgery on October 6th. I hope and pray this is all easy stuff!
I also found out one of the days Mason was in the hospital that Eric and I are expecting our fourth child. I am so excited and happy! I have felt really tired and a lot nauseous but I still love it! Being pregnant has always made me happy! Eric will be getting his vasectomy on September 11th. So this is it for us. I look at the three that are already here and I see their new experiences and hope that I am not screwing this up, and the line I keep hearing in my head is from Steel Magnolias where Julia Roberts says "I would rather have a few minutes of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special." I know that not everyone agrees with my choices but they are mine to make. Again from Steel Magnolias "In the end there will be this little piece of immortality with (I am taking so liberties here) Eric's sense of humor and my strong will. I hope!
