Builder Sam is back!

Hi everyone. Thank you for your kind words regarding my child's surgery. Everything went as planned.  The surgery itself took just over six hours, and recovery period has gone well.
I must say, the children's hospital is so different than when I was a kid. All the kids get private rooms and the parent stays 24/7.  (I got to stay in hospital without even being sick!) However, it is not so fun seeing your offspring in pain.
We have some more surgery later in the year, but I have time now to continue building Willow Ridge.
Time to catch up with everyone's blogs.
Now, I just need to find Isabelle. . .

  1. So glad to have you back! Sending good thoughts for continuing success and healing for the little one. Our son was in a major car accident at 15 and it was an almost 18 month ordeal. It's so hard to see them so vulnerable and I know how grateful you are when things go well. Hugs

  2. That's wonderful news! I, so glad things went smoothly and I agree that children's hospitals are getting so much better in terms of letting loved ones stay. What a relief :)

  4. Glad to hear that everything went well (or at least as expected) with your child's surgery. It is nice that you were able to stay in the hospital with him/her. I also hope that the next surgery is just as successful. Glad to see you back, at least for a while!

  5. So glad to hear that your child's surgery went ok. I know these things can be stressful but prayers and good thoughts coming your way. I & my husband work with the organizations of the Shriner's Children's husbands, raising money and we see a variety of kids we help each month with different conditions. Praying for your child to be on the mend soon.

  6. Hi Sam,
    So glad things went well and that you both have a little break from hospitals for a while.

    It will be good to see you back blogging again, and poor Isabelle will surely be glad to see you too (when you find her).

    I shall look forward to seeing more building on the go soon.
    Warmest hugs,

  12. HI SAM! :D Welcome Back and I am glad to hear that you child is now on the mend and that things are going okay. I kinda figured that perhaps you had had some difficulties with Blogger as well and having read through you last 2 posts, I see that I was right. That change really messed blogland up but I am VERY GLAD to see that you are once again in the loop.
    When you find Isabel, please let her know that I've missed her too! ;P
