Today's the Day

Roddy and I are on our way to get breakfast in Chicago before driving over to Indiana for Roddy's reversal appointment (2:30 pm).

When we get home I'll post pics of this beautiful city.

UPDATE:

We're back at the hotel watching the Magic game. What a day!

Dr. Streeter was so great! He talked with us first and told us what would be involved. Roddy tried to tune him out - he really didn't want to know what would be happening to him. I was very emotional, so I was trying to hold back tears the whole time.

The actual surgery took maybe 30-40 minutes and I got to sit in. When he gave Roddy the local anesthesia it really hurt - like he had been kicked really hard. Seeing him hurting so badly made me cry! At the same time the Dr. asked me a question and I couldn't answer. Roddy realized I was crying and answered for me. I now know why women are the ones to give birth - and not because Roddy was by any means wimpy about the whole thing but - because I hated to see him in pain.

When we got in the car I told Roddy I felt such a relief. We had finally made things right. What a peace!

Thanks for praying!!
