Maddog....

As many of you know... I took Maddog into the doc Monday and they sent me straight down to the ER at the American Fork hospital. Within 3 hours he was in and out of surgery. His appendix had ruptured and this is what they found in his little belly.

The surgeon said it was about as bad as it gets!!! I don't have a ton of time but here are a few pictures. Hopefully we will be coming home from the hospital before the first of next week. He is pretty miserable but is a tough little man! Thanks for all your calls and prayers. We have great family and friends.

When you next post, will you please explain what they found in his belly? I don't know how the appendix works or anything so I don't get the picture.

Give little Maddy a hug from me. I just talked with Dad and he told me about his appendix. I'll be praying for a speedy recovery. You're in my prayers, too!
