.Shelly with 4 bags of frozen peas to bring down the swelling.

Mckenna at the hospital.

Shelly had her operation on Tuesday afternoon and I got down to Mississauga on Wednesday night. Luke and I drove down to the hospital with McKenna to see her that evening. She seemed not to bad.

On Thursday morning I got McKenna ready and we drove to the hospital for a visit thinking that Luke would go that evening while I stayed home with the baby. Well it didn't quite go like that.

When I arrived Shelly was sitting in her bed in tears. The nursing staff was pathetic to say the least. They had taken out her Morphine IV and then proceeded to be late with her pain medication every time. They left her sitting on the bed pan and no one actually helped her bath herself the whole time she was there. There were just so many things they didn't do or did wrong I just can't list them all but the end result was that Shelly decided that she would be better off at home than in the hospital. Naturally by the time she was discharged it was rush hour traffic.......ya and I don't drive in downtown Toronto......well now I do. We made it home and proceeded to get the house set up for a patient on crutches......handle bars on the toilet, and benches in the bathtub. There were prescriptions to get and a baby to look after.

By day two Shelly was much happier, proper food, proper care, a full nights sleep and a real bath! She has quite a bit of Swelling and bruising but I think she will recover much faster than the last time
