SURGERY DAY 2
Yay! I didn't go into surgery today tho...
I am starting to miss Bakersfeld. Mostly just the smell of cows in the morning. I could live in Egypt as an Op Smile mission cordinator. Just tell me when. :D
Or just in general I really like Egypt actually! Today my mom ignored the alarm clock and slept in till nine! Oh well we needed the sleep. Megan (mission cordinator who is AWESOME) walked with us to the hospital. Dr. Samarrai's fill in is here! I can't wait to go to Qena, Egypt. When I go there, I get to meet the kids I helped when I payed for the last mission to Qena! I'm so excited.
I'm syched!
TODAY- we played with the kids and I spent alot of my time in Post Op. Kelly (rommie) who is a night nurse. worked WAY over time. I felt so bad. I keep thinking about what I'm gonna tell everyone I did here. There's just so much!
A BRAVE BOY...
Remember the 12 year old boy Qalif? Right before his surgery he was crying. I went to go talk to him with my mom. I knew how he felt. I'm not going to lie it's completly terrifying being on that surgery bed gonna be pushed through those doors. Knowing that they are going to operate on you. And wondering if you will wake up after. It made me cry just to see him upset.
I told him it'd be okay. I'm geting teary just writing this. It was so emotional. I wanted him to be okay. I knew nothing would go wrong- but you can't just explain that to someone. Its scarry.
That boy is so brave. He will be so handsome ( he already is) and he will be a total knockout. I want the best for him. He's great.
Leaving for Qena
I'm on the plane to Qena now! Dr. Samarai and Mom are right by me. I'm listening to my iPod and reflecting on everything.
