No Book, No Window, and No Complications

Me Ra Koh

A quick update from Brian, Me Ra’s

I just got home with Blaze from visiting Me Ra at the Hospital.

I forgot to bring her a book to read. She has no windows in her room. She has to share a bathroom down the hall.

She’s ready to come home.

The Doctor said everything went well in the surgery yesterday. So if we’re going to have problems at the hospital, these are definitely the problems I’d pick for my wife.

Thank you all for your prayers, hopes, and loving concerns. I can’t believe how many people emailed and commented on this Blog. We really felt our community’s support. Me Ra commented several times yesterday and today about feeling so many people’s love and support for her and our family’s well-being for the surgery and recovery.

On a side note, since I started writing this Blog, Blaze came over and sat on my lap as we looked for a funny picture or video of Me Ra to show you today. We found a lot of pictures and video clips that made Blaze and I laugh, like one with her looking cross-eyed, but I’m too afraid of getting into too much trouble with Me Ra, especially while she’s recovering.

So here’s one I found taken at Pascaline’s friend Eva’s house on Pascaline’s 6th Birthday in March. Eva’s Mom took this picture of the Princesses at the Princess Tea Party.

    I cant believe I missed this whole thing! Prayers lifted up, Im so glad things are turning for the better! My wife went through this same stuff for a handful of years, and Christmas a year ago, we made the same decision. You wont believe how much better you will be doing soon! Cant wait to see you back on your feet!!!

  8. Thank you so much for giving us an update. For a busy person like Me Ra I am sure just laying around in a hospital is not her idea of a good time but so glad everything went well.

  19. Me Ra says:

    I just got to say that if I ever knew being in recovery from surgery was going to be this much fun, I totally wouldn’t have spent so much time worrying and stressing and done this sooner!! πŸ™‚ Thanks for all the warmth and prayers and meals! Just this morning the school left a big basket with Oprah’s magazine, chocolate chip cookies, and sparkling cider. I’m set!

    Love you all so much!
