Christmas in the hospital

Christmas in the hospital was a little odd but overall not too bad, thanks to friends and family.

Things I missed:
- seeing the street luminaries last night
- going to moms in the morning for breakfast & stockings
- hanging with my sisters during the day & drinking coffee
- dinner with family with great food and
Amazing homemade desserts
- seeing nieces & nephews and hearing about their Christmas morning
- my doggies!!

Things I Enjoyed:
- movie night with Sandra
- Starbucks from Erin in morning
- random visit from old friend from
high school
- having my stocking come to hospital
- iPhones that have face time talk so i could "see" out of state siblings
- visit from good friend and pastor Kelly
- time with Kristin and a cute cuddly puppy
- cousin "love" with Ari
- having Sandra bring nieces out so I could give/receive our gifts
- watching church from a DVD
- having my brother and nephew sneak and surprise olive into my hospital room
- visit from Melissa and Anna
- phone call with Jamie
- late night visit from M & J

Tried to make the best of things and stay positive. There have been lots of tears and crying out of pain, frustration and sadness but are hanging in. My ears feel a little better this evening and we are more on top of pain. I'm soooo tired and worn out. Hoping for a better night...

Merry Christmas!
