Well, I am happy to report that all went well with the surgery on Friday. I appreciate all of the concerned phone calls and support. You can see from my sweet picture here that I look about as good as I feel. (CRAPPY!) The Dr. had no problem finding the IUD....it was lodged right up against my bladder. It was a pretty nerve racking experience for me because my Dr. had never done this particular surgery before. She had done many laproscopy surgeries but never one to retrieve a lost IUD. It goes to show you how RARE this really is. Nathan and my dad gave me a blessing the night before so I was feeling pretty confident that all would go well. I'm sore and tired but I am relieved that it is over now. I'm very lucky to have such a wonderful family who always helps me out when I need it. I am especially blessed to have such an amazing and supportive husband who has bent over backwards making sure the kids are taken care of and the house isn't falling apart. I love him SO much. Hopefully I will be back to feeling myself in a few days.

Staci,
I hope that your recovery goes fast and that you will be up and moving around soon. Whatever you do- Don't do anything until you FEEL up to doing it...your family will be better off when they get a healthy and happy mom/wife back rather than one that did too much too soon and is hurt for longer! :) A hug from me-I am thinking about you!
Staci, you are looking...um, yeah...great?!!! Just kidding. I am so glad everything went well for you and not too much fell apart thanx to Nate :-) Let me know if you need help when you start getting around again and realize you need a rest. Hugz
Yikes, that is terrible! I am glad you have it taken care of now. Also, those boys are seriously darling. We have to get together next time you are in California!
I just found your blog and have been catching up on one of my favorite families that "passed through" Spokane! :-) Glad your surgery went well and glad you had lots of family support.
