So when you look at this picture you might just see a picture of me, but this is the craziness of hospital life. Dan and I held hands as we walked into the hospital together Friday morning after sleeping in the same bed the night before (trust me, this is part of the story), as we do every night. After we checked in at the nurse's desk, a very sweet nurse led us to a pre-op room where the doctors, anesthetists, and OR (not or, OR for Operating Room) nurses come in to talk to Dan before surgery. Right as we are about to walk into the room, the nurse reminds me that he is on "contact precautions" and that I must gown and glove up before I enter his room. I love it...really...if I were going to catch something from him or vice versa it probably would have already happened!
1 grilled ham and cheese sandwich - $0.90
1 order french fries - $0.55
1 large soda - $0.20
Knowing by heart that Tuesday is taco day and Friday is Pizza - priceless
This is one of my other favorite things about hospital life. While Dan was back in surgery, I went down to the cafeteria to get some lunch. This is my receipt. $1.65 for lunch. Crazy!!! And it's not like I chose the cheap stuff. When Dan was first injured, I kid you not, his parents and I would spend then ENTIRE meal discussing in disbelief how cheap our food was. It might take me a little bit to adjust to civilian life:)
Just thought you guys would like this little insight to our lives!
ps-do not judge my choices for lunch...I am pregnant and having SERIOUS food aversions.

no judging on the food...those grilled ham and cheese sandwhiches are awesome!!! And I take the kids to willford hall to eat at their cafeteria sometimes because I can feed both kids and myself for $5...you can't even do that at home!
Hey, Teal! As always, you are hilarious! So glad the move is under way! Headed to school tomorrow, but I will still be checking in and praying for you guys!!!! Ham and cheese and fries sounds great to me!!!
Those food choices sound *great* to me... and I'm not pregnant! :) We'll miss you guys!
Teal! I found you! And you were hiding on the internet! Hahahahaha!!! So glad to see that you and your family are doing well. I'm doing great. I'm up in Dallas still working for a civil engineering firm designing highways and tollways. But they pay me the big bucks because I can sing and dance. :) Keep in touch!
