Tim is finally getting his pacemaker battery changed this morning. He is quite proud of the fact that it lasted for nine years, longer than any other man's pacemaker battery.
I guess it is a guy thing.
He is also excited to be getting a cutting-edge, newer high-tech version. Also, a guy thing.
A most considerate friend is driving him to the hospital, so I don't have to haul the kids out of bed at 5:00am. I feel a little guilty not to be waiting in the waiting room for him, but Annie is sick, so I don't have a babysitter.
I don't want to infect any of the grandparents with a fever/cough thing right now.
It's a lot different from when he originally had the pacemaker put in nine years ago. We had just lost a friend to cancer, and I was sure he was going to die and leave me a widow with three kids under the age of five and no job.
When the nurse came to tell me he was out of surgery and everything went fine, I was stunned.
This time around, we have been through so many surgeries, even my normally pessimistic mind can't work up too much worry.
I also have learned a lot about putting it all in God's hands and not taking it upon myself to worry.
So I am off to sleep for now...:)
