Yesterday, my mom and I took Emma to Primary Children's for what they called a "POP" Party. At first, I was unsure as to what to expect. First of all, "POP" stands for Pre-Op. They helped us all to understand what was going to happen with the surgery. They brought out dolls for the kids to see what they do with the thermometer, and the blood pressure cuff, etc. Emma had a blast. They even gave her some gloves, one of those blue hair nets, and even a mask to bring home. She looked so cute sitting there on the floor, looking like a doctor with her "patient".
It was nice to have some preparation for the surgery. My mind is more at ease to see what good hands my Miss Emma is in.

I didn't know they did stuff like that! That's so awesome! I'm glad you are feeling better about it. I hope everything goes well!
Thanks! I didn't know they did it either. I was actually surprised when they told me to go see what it was like. But it was a good way for the kids to see that there's nothing to be scared of.
Glad to know they help you prepare like that. Our thoughts & prayers continue to go out for Emma. All will be well :)
