At My Age?

For those of you who did not know I had my tonsils and my adenoids removed yesterday. Yes at my age I had to have it done. Lets just say that when they said I would have severe throat pain is an understatement. I have a high tolerance of pain but this is awful. The pain medication that they gave me is in liquid form but it just barely takes the edge off the pain. I cant hardly talk yet just barely whisper and I have had ice chips and water since yesterday. I am going to attempt ice cream today. I had thrown up some blood a few times yesterday and it hurts to throw up after having that kind of surgery. I feel for Pastor David and what he has had to deal with after his surgery. It is no fun and you feel horrible and not being able to talk is hard for me. My girls have been great about helping take care of me and things around here. They gave me a bell to ring if I need anything but I try not to ask for anything unless I really need it. Natalie even got up in the middle of the night last nite to get me some ice chips and to make sure I took my medicine and she had to be up at 6 this morning for school. She has been a big help. Im very proud of her and how she has taken charge while I am in bed. I will be at church on Sunday but I wont be doing flags or dancing for at least 3 weeks. I have to get okay from the doctor to do any kind of strenous activity. So if you see me on Sunday and I dont speak I only smile you will know why. Dont take it the wrong way Im just in alot of pain and its hard to talk. Love you all and keep me and the girls in your prayers.
