Thanksgiving Adventure

Well this last section of med school before the end of the semester is seeming to be a little bit easier... Luke is really only in the class for about 3 1/2 weeks which is crazy and it's coming around the corner here really quickly!

A little game changer that got thrown in the mix of thanksgiving festivities this year was my surgery... The day before thanksgiving! I had a spur on the inside of my right foot up by my big toe, this caused a neuroma which became very painful! So Wednesday morning my sweet husband took me in for surgery where we were met by my parents and the best father-in-law I could have ever hoped for!

I had to arrive at 7:30 and they didn't get me in to surgery for four hours.. Needless to say they pumped me with so much fluid so quickly I had to go to the bathroom a million times! Sweet Lucas took me home to recover and take care of me! Some of my family came to see us the next morning as we watched the thanksgiving parade and then we soon headed out to Chandler, Ok to see Luke's incredible family! We had an amazing thanksgiving, I did a little too much and my foot was really swollen by the time we left ... But it was well worth it!

However, before we all ate dinner Luke's sweet Grandmother suggested we go around the table and say what we were thankful for and Lucas made me tear up when he unexpectedly said he was most thankful for me!! I felt so special, it was one of the sweetest and kindest things I've ever witnessed!

So now today we've had a lazy recovery day together... This surgery couldn't have come at a better time so I can spend it all with my hubby on his break!
