| | Yesterday was sincearly stressful. I was a mess.
I spent the night at Mandy's, and when we woke up, we had to get dressed and ready, really quick.
On the way down to the hospital, we listened to some oldies, which made Mandy, Barbie, and Me feel a lot better,
we danced to it all. 
But then we got to the hospital...signed in, and about a half hour later, she was called back. I couldn't see her right away. I had to wait...
But then Nanny finally came out and told me to go back. I went back and Mandy was still smiling, especially since I was there. In her little hospital gown...awww...I was there when the nurse put the IV in ... not good .. I didn't know how i would react to it. I watched her put it in ... and I got lightheaded...couldn't hear...got hot...color draining from my face....I was about to pass out. I wasn't going to say anything because the nurse had to turn on the IV for Mandy...but Barbie caught it...and the nurse gave me ammonia inhalent. Yuck...Mandy laughed her ASS off at me....I dont think it was very funny...
I stayed by Mandy's side, holding her hand, until she was rolled back to the OR doors...I hugged her, and said goodbye...when I watched her roll away, I cried my eyes out. That was terrible. I couldn't have felt worse. I was worried, scared, and just...in awe...I couldn't believe i was seeing her like that. 2 hours went by. I cried. Watching the screen ... "50101: Patient has arrived in Operating-Room." That made me cry even more. My little Mandy...my baby...her life in the hands of someone else. But i guess you could say, i trusted that. As Nanny said, "there doing things that we cant..." Once the 2 hours were up...the doctor came out. It took the minimum time the surgery could last. I started to cry again, tears of joy this time. He said she was fine...everything went well. Her kidney reacted the way it was supposed to...they took out her galbladder and appendix without problems...moved around her intestines...and arteries. No hemmerging...nothing. I was soooooooooooooooooo so so so relieved! My baby was going to be ok!!!!
Her galbladder and appendix were all decayed..rotten.  but she's fine. I didn't stop crying until my parents got there...unfortunatly they weren't able to see her. They had to leave. But I was just happy to have them there. About an hour after they left...Mandy finally arrived in her room...at 8:30. Seeing her made me cry..But she was awake..she smiled at me. She has a drain coming out of her nose, going into her stomache, getting all the backed up food in her intestines. I cried...we went into the room..and i held her hand, and sat beside her. Epideral in her back. A tube coming out of her nose, IV in her hand...her left leg was paralized...the color drained from her face. Her lip swollen. She said she bit it right before she went to sleep....she wiped the tears off my face, although I couldn't hug her. She just rubbed my face and smiled at me...she said "everything is going to be ok, I love you baby" ... Oh man, my baby...I love her so incredibly much. Before I left, I kissed her forehead, and her hands...and i cried again...I didnt want to leave her there.
When i got home, I cried my eyes out to my mom. She said I had to go to school the following day. Luckily, my dad got home...and convinced my mom to let me go back to the hospital...he said to me, "see what tomorrow brings" My daddy I love him...he'd do anything...
So today, I'm going to her side once again. You have no idea how happy it makes me to be with her. I didn't either until yesterday. She is my life, and I can't deal with out her.
