I had been looking for some mommy/jazzy time, this is not how I wanted it to go!!! A nice vacation to a tropical island was more what we were looking for! Well instead we got an emergency surgery with a three day hospital visit. It all went so fast it is a tad hard for me to recollect. Jasmine called me at the office and said "Mom, my belly hurts so bad I can't walk!" I told her I would get her an appointment at the doctors offices and meet her there. We were there at noon. We were then sent to the ER. They took us right in and gave her some morphine as it was quite apparent that my Jazzy was in severe pain. They got her in to Ultrasound and brought us back to the ER. The doctor came in and said did they tell you? I said NO tell me what????? Jasmines right ovary is 11cm, her left is normal at 2cm. What does that mean I said??? Well she may need surgery as it appears her right ovary is twisted, we need to do one more "exam" to check on one more thing and we will let you know. OK I said and thought I would be waiting for a while 3 minutes later 2 surgeons walk in and unbeknown'st to me or the ER doctor they had received the imaging from her ultrasound which is common by the way for it to be forwarded to them for review. They introduced themselves and said, "Jasmine has almost no blood flow to her right ovary she needs surgery NOW to save it! I just remember it feeling like I had been hit by a freight train. They had me sign the consent and away we went. There I was all by myself sitting in the waiting room digesting that my daughter was in surgery. Imad was on his way but did not make it before she went in. She wass in her hospital room by 9:00 pm. Most normal people go home the next day, but you see she is my daughter and that is not the way we Jaber women do it! She had an allergic reaction to the pain med and began to itch from head to toe and her nose was the color of Rudolph's and oh mom I can't BREATHE! They rushed in and started her on steroids, and a few other things that helped however she was still dizzy and VERY nauseous. Well that bought us Tuesday night in the hospital as well. Wednesday morning they came in to tell us she could go home anytime she wanted to. So then at 9:00 am we were ready to go for them to inform me her stats need to improve and that were not going anywhere! I forced fluids on the princess all day and we walked laps around the hospital floor. At 7:30 pm they set us FREE!!!! We get to sleep in the comforts of our own home tonight, I got to take a real shower, we get to eat real food and enjoy being home with our family. My Jazzy is home to recover, we did enjoy some alone time maybe not the tropics as I had on my wish list but it was our time! She is doing much better and I am so happy we are ALL home together again!!!
