On Friday, March 28th, my momma had total hip replacement surgery. The surgery went great. She hasn't been in much pain and as soon as she starts to feel pain, it's time to take a lortab. She has a new metal ball and socket coated in plastic in her hip. David and I got her some flowers for her room. I wanted to find a card that said "Congrats on your new addition," but I didn't find one. Now whenever she walks through metal detectors, they should beep. I spent the night with her on Friday night. I felt like I had a newborn baby. I was waking up at least every 2 hours because the nurses came to check on her and sometimes I would wakeup because the IV machine started beeping. Momma was able to share her faith with a lot of the nurses. She told them that God was the reason she made it though the surgery. She said she had prayed that God would show off. Momma came home today and luckily we have a hospital bed she can lounge in. (My granddad had one when he was terminally ill.) She's able to walk with a walker, but it's very tiring and time consuming. Please pray that she continues to heal well. It's still a long journey.
By His Grace.
