Welcome Liam Hunter...

Andre and I arrived at the hospital, on 7.25.11, to check in at around 6am.
We were checked in and in our room by 6:30am.
As soon as we arrived I was being prepped.
The LOVELY hospital gown was the first step.
Then onto IV. Which is usually a long process but it didn't go to bad this time.
As they were putting iv fluids in me they also started Reglan for surgery prepping...
All of the sudden i was feeling very sick...
Ended up getting close to passing out all to find out I was having a reaction to the Reglan.
Whew...
They got it stopped and within 30 mins I was feeling like myself again and ready for surgery!
Enough talk...
On to pictures....
