Today was the day for Cheri to have her knee repaired. We had to be at the Out Patient at 8:00 am. We waited until 9:30 am before she got to the prep room, not sure why we had to be so early. At 10:30 doctor Knight came in and talked to us about what he was going to do and before he left he had a prayer with us. I was really impressed, never had a doctor do this before. Then I knew for sure God directed us to the right doctor. At 10:40 they took her in for surgery to remove and repair a torn meniscus. The doctor came out at 11:40 am and told me everything went as planned, great news. Then the worst part was to come for Cheri as she gets very sick from the anesthesia. She talked to the doctor about this before she went in for surgery and they said they would give her something that would help and she shouldn’t get sick. Well it didn’t work as she was really sick and took a long time for her to come out of the anesthesia. They gave her something else to help with the sickness. It was around 2:15 pm when we left to come home. After eating a couple of soda crackers and a little Ginger Ale she went to bed. She slept until around 6:30 pm. When she got up she felt much better and no more sickness. At this point in time she said her knee didn’t hurt any more than it did when she went in for the surgery. I am sure the pain medicine they gave her hadn’t worn off. I got her up and out in the living room so she could sit in her recliner, feeling much better she ate an English muffin and some more Ginger Ale. We watched TV until 10:00 pm and headed to bed. She still didn’t take anything for pain. Thank you for all the prayers.
