My friend had surgery on her bowel. It got twisted, which caused her abdominal and back pain. She lives roughly two hours away from me.
I went to see her on Saturday. She is healing nicely. She was understandably tired, but in good spirits.
I have known her since we were both twelve years old. She is roughly two weeks older than I am.
Both of us never thought that we'd have surgery. I had back surgery eight years ago, almost to the day. I think she felt better when we talked about and shared our surgery experiences.
I gave her a card and a gift card. I wrote how much I appreciated her. I said that our friendship meant even more now.
She thanked me several times for coming. It was the least that I could do. The drive wasn't anything. I was thankful that I could brighten her day as she continues to recovery.
It was good seeing her. I hope to check up on her again soon.
