Update, movie review....
So, my dad is doing quite a bit better. He had the surgery on Wednesday night and is finally today able to have some liquids! Pure torture if you ask me. They had given him a little bit of ice chips twice during all this time. I remember what that was life after having c sections. Horrible! So, we went and saw him on Saturday. Luckily, the surgeon came in just after we had gotten there. He said that the mass that they had removed was indeed colon cancer. The good news was that they had removed quite a few lymph nodes as well and had determined that it had not spread and that it was a Stage 1 cancer. He will have to have chemo once he is feeling better, which he is so not looking forward to, but they need to make sure it's all the way out of his bloodstream. Hopefully it won't be too strong since they have removed the mass. He is just scared it will make him too sick to work I think. But, today was a milestone, the dr said that he had to fart before he could have any liquids...(Which normally for my dad would be no problem! lol) and we got word that that had finally happened today so hopefully he will be home within a few days. Still not sure what we are doing for Thanksgiving. If he is home in time, my sister wants us to come down there, but still not sure what will happen...I'm hoping we can make a decision tonight. Now, for the movie review...It was so good! Worth breaking my 10 year movie theater drought for. I think I went in not expecting to love it so maybe that's why I did. Wasn't excited for Edward's casting, but Trisha and I ended up thinking he was cuter and cuter as the movie went on. It made me like Jacob more than I originally had....Anyways, I was quite pleased with it and would possibly even pay another $7-$8 to see it a second time before it comes out on DVD (Which is estimated to be in April) So anyways, it was a good time for all. We had to save like 16 seats at the theater, luckily we didn't have to throw down with anyone for them! Jeremy's sister found out she is having a 3rd boy. She was pretty surprised because she had been feeling like it was a girl, she was even more surprised to find out that she is due almost a month before she had originally thought! Now, she and Jeremy's brother's wife are due within just a couple days of eachother! Ryan is hoping one or both of the babies is born on his birthday. We'll have to see what happens. It's kind of freaking me out because Ryan is turning 8 on a Friday and I wanted to have his baptism the following day. Now I feel like I can't plan in case there are babies being born. I'm not sure what to do since I always like to plan everything and don't like to feel like I'm not in control of the plan lol. Oh well! We'll see what happens!
