Tori had an unforgettable first day of school, not just for her, but everyone else will remember her as well as the girl who threw up all over the classroom and in the hallway and in front of the school as well. Obviously, I thought as I drove her home early, this is not just nerves. She must have a stomach flu. The next day didn’t show much improvement. She still had severe stomach cramps, but nothing was coming up as she hadn’t eaten in over 24 hours. As I related the story to a school teacher friend of mine, she said, “I am always careful with things like that, you never know when it could be appendicitis.” OK, I must be totally clueless, because the thought never entered my mind. Sure enough though, her father took a look at her and it was off to the hospital. After Benny and our pediatrician did some debating as to which hospital, or moreover which procedure was better (an incision or scope), they opted for a very experienced surgeon who happened to have night shift.

These pictures are so sad. I'm glad she is feeling better.
Kids will soon forget that she threw-up at school and she can show them her cool new scar. Glad she is home and feeling better!
Poor thing! I'm glad it turned out okay. It was good to see her (although just once!) while she was here. Hopefully next time we can see all of you. :) Also, I wanted to thank you for the baby gift. Both boys love it!
