he finally gets it!!!!!!!!

Ok so on superbowl sunday i posted a rant about how my dad was trying to get me to "cheat" a lil after only having surgery 3 weeks before, I dont think he really got what my restriction was then... Im four weeks out now and still on like a major protien kick from my doctors.  So my dad went out last week and has been buying me fish up the wazoo... which is wicked sweet and everytime he goes to the store, he looks for stuff for me to eat, like he got me crab cakes (i cant eat them just yet bc they have breading on them, But a good thought), salmon, tuna, haddock and scallops.  So for valentines day he always gets me,my sister and my mom stuff (usually chocolate) this year i figure i wasnt gonna get any because of my surgery and because Im really not suppose to eat it yet... Well my dad went to some candy store and got my sister fudge, my mom chocolate covered cherries and me SF peanut butter cups which are my favorite... so I think my dad finally gets it. And i tried one hehe and they are actually pretty good which is so awesome.  But i put them in the fridge because I dont want to get alot of them and they will be my treat over the new weeks.

That is so sweet!  I know what you mean about them not getting it, my dad brought me a balloon and jelly beans while I was still in the hospital!!!!  Thanks dad, I am on liquids for the next three weeks and you bring me little sugar bits.  Perfect!  I know they mean well, and it just takes a little time to realize how much of a change this is for us.  That is awesome he finally gets it though!!  It makes this whole process a lot easier when you have people on your side looking out for you. :)

Awwwe  Go dad!  I'm glad he is coming around.  It really shows that he put thought into it to get you the sf peanut butter cups.  That should make it easier on you to stick to your surgeon's plan.  Hope you enjoy the pb cups!
