Cell Phone Saturday (week 10)

He owes me big time!
My Sweetheart of 34 years,
owes me!
Yep!
That is the Sweetheart in a hospital bed!!!!
And he scared me to death, again.
I tell him he takes years off my life when these things happen.
He went off in the Ambulance about 11:30 Wednesday night.
Crazy thing, soon as they showed up, I started to throw up.
Nuts, I tell you, just nuts!
Good thing that the son that lives the closest to us
followed the ambulance and stayed
the night with him in the ER.
I stayed home and worked thru the virus
 that has been going around down here.
I showed up the next morning was sick
 again and had to go back home.
That time my brother was in town and
he was able to stay with the Sweetheart.
And it was a really bad time for him so
I was really glad that he stayed with my Sweetheart.
He is much better.
He had an infection jump on him really fast.
He stayed in the hospital 5 days.
He's better.
He's out and already back to work.
He loves work :)
He loves me, more.
And that is why he owes me.
We were suppose to have a date the very night he went in the hospital.
We were gonna celebrate our 8th anniversary.
That anniversary was the one of our
Kidney donor, Kidney transplant surgeries 8 years ago March 1st. 
Yep, the man has one of my Kidney's.
And it's a good one too.
So tomorrow night we are gonna try and celebrate again!
Wish us luck!
Sorry I'm almost a week late of Cell Phone Saturday.
I think you'll forgive me :)

Oh, gigi, how scary that must have been. I'm glad he's better. He sounds like a real trooper. And you are AMAZING.

Enjoy your celebration--that is definitely something to celebrate.

Wow! And yet, with all that fear, you wrote a beautiful tribute to the life you share.

This post made me joyful and sad all at the same time.
Such a scary time to have your hubby taken away in an ambulance.

When I get stressed I get the DRY HEAVES...can't control myself. I don't actually throw up, but I heave and heave and heave.

I soooo hope he continues to do well. GOSH GIGI...after all this time, I did not know you donated a kidney for your husband. Such love.

But I'd do the same too. My DIL (my youngest son's wife) only has one kidney. I always thought, if something went wrong, I'd gladly donate a kidney for her if it was a match.

She is the one who just endured the brain surgery to remove a tumor on her brain.

I HOPE YOU HAVE MANY MORE then 34 years together...AND MANY MORE then 8 wonderful years of sacrificed love together.
you are a doll.

Holy Smokes! I'm so sorry you both had to go through that! I hope you can celebrate your 8th anniversary tomorrow!
What a gift you both gave each other 8 years ago. you gave him the gift of life. He gave you the gift of him staying around longer!
{{{hugs}}} to both go you!

Sounds like you've been through a lot together. He's lucky to have you as his sweetheart too!

Oh how I hate those scares! They're not allowed to do that to us. Once is more than enough! I'm glad he's doing better, and you're over your stomach virus.

In the event that you get interminable back agonies, go to the chiropractor normally to keep more wounds from showing up.
