Whitney has been having major pains since August, but on Monday night something was very different. She was hurting so bad in her tummy and vomiting uncontrollably. The night before I had watched an episode of Lost and Jack had to get his appendix out. Whitney acted just like the guy in the show so my motherly instinct told me to take her into InstaCare.
This is Whitney at InstaCare after they ran all kinds of tests. She was trying to hold still and not freak out so much about the pain.

InstaCare sent us over to LDS hospital for a CT scan. The tech at the hospital didn't have the IV in her vein and when the dye went in it filled her arm up. It was really bad, so bad that they were going to admit her rather or not she had to get her appendix out. This is her arm after it had went down. I wished I would have been able to take a photo of it sooner, but you can still see that it is swollen.
Whitney after finding out that not only did she have appendicitis, she also had a large calcified gull stone. So it was a two for one special. At least we know why she had been having those pain episodes, dang gull stones.
This is my brave little girl on the way to the operating table.
She lived! This is her after and in good spirits (see my cute Dad).
I wished I could look this great after two surgeries.
She was spoiled with flowers.
A little sympathy for me please... This is the bed I slept on for two nights. I really didn't sleep much.
She had a lot of family visit. This is Freddy and Angie. Freddy is Whitney's cousin on the Treviño side.
Friends Danny, Kevin and Jessie.
Whitney's bestie Kourtney. She looks very concerned!
Time to go home! She came home today around 11:30 am. She is doing well and resting in her room. It just sucks to see your daughter in pain, but I am glad she is going to be ok.
The only good thing that came out of this entire ordeal is that my friend Melanie brought us a delicious dinner tonight and brought me a coke earlier in the day. What would we do without friends?
