He had septoplasty surgery this morning and he's been sleeping most of today. I hope tomorrow goes better. We're hoping this will help him breath the way he should but he keeps asking me why he did this. I keep reminding him it will be worth it but he's having a rough time right now. It was nice having the buzzer throughout surgery because they would send little text messages letting me know how it was going which was nice to have the peace of mind.
While he was in recovery the doctor came out and let me know how it went: he said it took him quite a bit longer than he thought and thinks that there is a history of trauma that made it so bad and feels very positive about the results. I'm not sure if Tony knows that yet because our conversations haven't been very long between his naps. He gets to take the plugs and gauze out of his nose tomorrow. He can't wait, and I can't wait for him. In the meantime I change the dressing for him pretty regularly. They call it a mustache dressing, for obvious reasons :)
One of Tony's wonderful sisters, Debbie brought over some dinner (actually enough for a few nights!) and it was so sweet of her. And as always, very good :) Thanks again Deb! Tony loves the Ice cream Creamies.

Wow, I hope he is doing better. I wonder what trauma. I don't remember Tony with a broken nose or even a black eye but my memory isn't always the best. We love you Tony, good luck with your recover and yes, it was worth it.
I can't remember a time when Tony had his nose broken or eye blackend either, but if I had to take a guess as to when the trauma most likely occured, I would guess it was when Deb, Rach and Brian beat him up during the fight over his leather coat. Hahaha! Deb probably realized this and brought diner as a peace offering! Just kidding, Debbie! But it's a funny thought!
