Ok so I was at the hospital with my little girl Marissa, who is 2, she needs to have an operation on her eye. Maybe some of you remember me posting about it after the last hospital appointment. Well today I found out the date for her operation it's Thursday 3rd July, which is only a week away.
I just want it over for her. I am not allowed to give her any food after midnight the night before, she isn't allowed a drink after 6.45am the morning of the surgery  i have to have her at the hospital for 7.45am, which means leaving home at 7am. I have no idea what im gonna do with Morgan, ive asked his dad to have him but work is more important. My mam will more than likely come to take him to school and pick him up and if need be he will have to sleep there.
They have said that the operation will take 1 1/2 hrs and she will be out the same day. But if she has a bad reaction to the anesthetic she may have to stay over.
Anyways just thought id let everyone who cares lol what is going on. | |

It's amazing what the medical profession can do..
your daughter will be enjoying her life even moreso after the surgery, as she will see things so much clearer..
I just hope she's not scared, having to go to the hospital. |
