surgery

well things certainly have happened in my life since i last blogged. i think i will begin with my Pop-o (Grandpa).

my Pop-o had a brain surgery last monday, he was home by thursday. the day of his surgery was a stressful day. i had a dream the night before his surgery of what could go wrong durning it. this is what i had dreamt; the surgery was going great and then the doctors hand slipped and cut one of his major veins or something. also that after the surgery was over and he was in the recovery room, awake and couldn't remember who i was. those were my fears that day. but none of those things happened of course. this is how it happened. we (meaning my mom, caroline and me) arrived at the hospital. my Pop-o had already been in his surgery for almost an hour and the doctor said that the surgery would take about 2 hours, that was around 1:30pm. the doctor didn't end up coming out until 5:45ish. my dreams came into my mind while i was waiting. But when it passed 3 hours that he had been in there, i thought to myself, "why am i worrying? he is in the Lord's hands right now and if the Lord decides to take him today then so be it. he will be with the Lord." now do not think that i don't care about my Pop-o. i do very much, but i needed to trust in the Lord with that and that is what i did.
my Pop-o's surgery went fine, he also remembered my name.
