Prayers needed

I had to take my 10 year old daughter to the emergency room because of a severe pain in her side. She has appendicitis. She was transferred to hillcrest in Waco, and we are now waiting for the surgeon. I'll be eternally grateful for all prayers for my baby girl.
Thanks, Cowboy
 
Thank the Lord & the fact y'all got her treatment quickly. I can empathize with her about the morphine. Woke up from knee surgery feeling worse than I ever had in my life, extreme dry h___, alergic reaction. They couldn't change med till doc made his morning rounds. Then he was elswhere that morning & his sub didn't want to change without consulting him 1st.
Used to know a guy who was sprayed down his backside -back/butt/legs, with an automatic entering a barn in Vietnam (I've seen the back & leg scars). They gave him morphine in the field/on the chopper on the way back to the base. He ripped off the tag/band indicating he'd been given the morphine. They gave him more. They didn't think he'd make it after some treatment and sent home to be with family. He woke up landing at a base in Washington state, then again coming into Carswell. That was his story, I did see some of the scars. Nothing to do with your daughter. Just hadn't thought of it in a while. That's some powerfull stuff. Glad she's through the worst part & feeling better. Having a severely sick or injured young child is one of the worst possible feelings on earth. The helplessness on your part is agonizing.
 
I just heard.
Glad y'all are OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She prolly gets her strength from her momma. ;)

(will she have a cool scar?)
(did she get to keep it?)
Imagine how popular she would be after show-n-tell with that thing in a jar and a cool scar!!
I'm just sayin'.
I love you, man.
 
My mother is 84 years old. She still has her appendix in a fruit jar full of alcohol. Appendicitis used to be a very serious thing. I just found out I had a great-uncle whose death was attributed to it in 1933 in Idaho. Of course he was out in the middle of nowhere and didn't receive any care in time.
 
Before her surgery I told her they were going to use a hacksaw and pliers to remove it. What a scar that would have left! Instead they did it orthoscopically and she will only have 3 very small scars. They are taking all the fun out of things. :(
Doggy - thanks for the love.
