On the first day at the hospital I went to my room and got ready for Tuesday, the surgery day. I had an IV put in my arm for the whole five day’s.
Before the IV I watched a movie called Megamind at the hospital movie theatre. Then I went to bed still with the IV on my hand.
Some doctors and nurses came in my room in the middle of the night when I was sleeping to see how I was doing.
The next morning I got ready for the surgery. I had a really good breakfast in the morning. I rested and watched some TV in the whole morning.
Then it was lunch time. It was an awesome lunch. I did some activities in the afternoon.
After it was time for surgery. I was very scared at first but when it happened I was not scared.
After I had a long sleep. Then I watched some TV with Mum.
Then I was hungry, so I had some biscuits when I played cards with Grandma until Dad came to take Mum home.
Then it was tea for me. It was delicious.
Then I watched hockey. Toronto was playing the Hurricanes. Toronto won! The score was 5 to 3.
Then Dad was back. I was asleep by then. The next morning it was time for the nurses to do the button.
After it was time to go home. They took out the IV, then I jumped out of bed. Then we got ready to go home.
When I got home I ran to my room and jumped on my bed. I was happy I got to go home.
Now that was the story about my Cecostomy Surgery.
The End!

Great sharing about your surgery Caleb. You were so brave and it was fun having sleepovers in hospital with you (and baby Elijah in my tummy), even though I was making you laugh so much it hurt your stomach. You sure do like your food don’t you? Good thing that you like popsicles so much. I think I lost count of how many you had, as that was all you were allowed to eat for quite a few days. One of my favourite parts was when you woke me in the middle of the night and asked if we could pray together for the nurses that were looking after you. They sure did a good job didn’t they? I also love how many people were praying for you and your surgery. God was and still IS very much with you as you have these treatments Caleb. You are doing great!!
Love from Mum xoxo
Dear Mum,
thanks for the comment you sent me. I did like you at the hospital when you made me laugh. Thanks for staying with me at the hospital.
love Caleb xoxo
Wow Caleb sounds like you were pretty brave, I remember when I was about your age and had to stay in the hospital for a couple days too but no surgery for me. My favorite part was they said I could have as much ice cream as I wanted. Hope your feeling better now mate.

Hi Eric,
how did you end up in the hospital? Where lucky to have ice cream. I had Popsicle sticks for a treat.
Bye Eric
Hi there Caleb
It has been good to read your own story about your surgery.
Mum is right you know when she says that God is still with you as you have your treatments.
How are the school holidays going?
Keep up the great writing.
Love from Gran x x
Hi Gran,
The holidays are great so far. Your a message behind Mum. Reply soon please.
Bye Gran xoxo
Hey Caleb:
This is great reading about your surgery. I remember that time well; your cool, green striped pyjamas, your remote bed and TV, your mum/dad’s bed along the window and playing cards with you but most of all I remember how brave you were. You are one special boy and we love you so very much.
I can hardly wait to see what you write about next!
love Grandma
Caleb – we enjoyed hearing about your surgery and your stay in the hospital. We loved coming to the hospital to visit with you (and loved your green jammies!)
Great Job on your blog! Good to know that you like popsicles – when you come over for a playdate with Josh, we will make sure we have some in the freezer!
Hope your summer holidays are going great. We will see you soon!
Love The Halcros

Hi Mrs.Halcro
Thanks for the comment that you sent me. I’m glad that you like my stories.
Maybe Josh should start a blog so we can comment to each other.
