various and sundry gizmos were added to Aliza "And this here, this is the machine that goes PING!"
candles are a huge no-no in hospitals I read this and laughed, after taking a minute of trying to figure out what the big deal is. The hospitals here not only allow candles, they invite volunteers to bring them in. I initiated a number of Chanuka candle-lightings as a student nurse.
She warned me that I'd have to sit in "the loneliest chair in the world" for about 20-30 minutes while they prepped her. She wasn't kidding. At least you were sitting. I was standing down the hall from where my wife is about to be cut open, pacing and shuffling my feet, and with a number of nurses repeatedly telling me to stay behind the arbitrary sterility line. But lonely indeed, and absolutely mind-racking.
That's probably because they're putting your uterus back in. It's normal. Am totally remembering this for when I do my obstetrics rotation. (My dosing of absurd conversations has increased exponentially since I started doing school clinical rotations.)
Avigayil was King David's wife, she exhibited moral rectitude, and incredible courage. (She told her husband off several times, and made it stick.) Very befitting of her mother's daughter :)
Mazal tov to you, Aliza, Rena Avigayil, and the whole family. We're really happy for you guys.
