Trip's Hernia Surgery



For those of you who don't know, Trip had hernia surgery on June 6th. His pediatrician noticed the hernia the week before and said to keep an eye on it. On the Thursday before surgery he was really irratated and crying. My sister, Jeni, and I undressed him and we noticed a golfball size lump in his groin. The hernia was out and wouldn't go back in. We went up to ER and thankfully for papa, who has many hospital connections, he and the general surgeon came to the ER lobby to check Trip out. He said he wanted to operate the next morning!! Nana came over that night to help, since I couldn't feed him, she was a lifesaver. The surgery went very good and mom and dad were very relieved!! He is doing great now and feeling good!!

I am going to Echo what Bryndie said- I am glad the surgery went well and the he is doing better. I also love the video Kels has of him laughing on his facebook page. It's so fun to watch them be Happy.

I just noticed the Boudreaux's BUTT PASTE in the picture. I love how life comes full circle- that is the same Boudreaux's butt paste we used to slip in people's grocery carts at wallmart in Louisiana.
I didn't know they sold that stuff out side of Louisiana.
