Emotional Sunday

Stephanie and I stayed with mama last night so that I could spend as much time with her as possible before I flew back to Utah today. She hardly slept because of her fever but she was off the ventilator for another 7 hours during the night. She's getting even stronger! She was finally able to fall asleep around 6am and slept until 11am before they took her off the ventilator again which woke her up. Luckily she was awake and coherent enough to understand the past few days and that I was going back to Utah soon. She was somewhat prepared for it and when the time came a few tears were shed but I let her know that I would be back out there in a few weeks as long as I am able to and that she just needs to stay strong. I'm sure before the next time I'm out there, she will be in a long term care facility and possibly even speaking already. They are going to do an MRI tomorrow to see if she is not closed up properly from the gallbladder removal so that option is back in the mix of things and she might have to have surgery number five to fix that issue. Words cannot express how much I love and miss her already but luckily my dad and Stephanie are there with her now. I'll see you again soon mama... stay strong!
