Drug addled identity crisis

When Em woke up from her anesthesia, the first thing she saw was a sign that read "Your nurse is Joel." Unfortunately, in her muddled state, she read it as "Your NAME is Joel." Confusion reigns supreme in the hospital!

"Joel" is now resting comfortably at home, thanks in part to the various drugs she's on for the pain.

I am so happy all went well! We will hope the pathologist soes not find any thing. When i had mine the pathologist found more cells so had to go for the big one.
God bless you all hang in there

Emily-
Glad things went well! Had a dream about you in the hospital. Your mom was singing, "If your Happy and you know it clap your hands."
Anyways my wife and I and our kids are praying for you. Keep smiling.

Hey! A girl named "Joel" is nearly as cool as a girl named "Branden"...

Hopefully we'll hear good news on Wed. and have one more thing to be grateful for on Thursday.

Thanks for the continued updates, Lisa.

Speedy recovery, Em.

Hey Emily,

"A Girl Named Joel" sounds like a title to a good book. Look at you, inspiring the stuff of novels.

Glad to hear surgery went well. We're all behind you, Em!

With affection,
Mindy
