“Did you see the last text from Mom about Toby?” Brody Ingram asked his older brother, David. They were both playing video games. “Not recently. Any new updates? Last I saw was that he was getting ready to go into surgery,” David replied. “It’s done.” “Oh really?” “Yeah, I’ll just read the text. She said, ‘Hey family, so I have an update on Toby. Daniela and I are both at the hospital with him, and his appendix is out. He did very well with the surgery, but he has severe nausea and threw up twice already. They noted that his heart rate is pretty elevated. They also noted that he does have a hernia, which they will look at once he is recovered from his appendectomy. They are keeping him for 1-2 days for observation, but they said they appreciated his quick wit and good banter. For what he has gone through today, he seems to be in really good spirits,’” Brody said. “Yup. He’s our Toby,” David remarked. “I can relate to that, since I had my appendix removed, too. I think I stayed in the hospital for 2 days. Worst pain and nausea I’ve ever experienced.” “Yes, I remember that. One minute, we were playing video games. The next minute, you were completely doubled over in agonizing pain.” “If I remember correctly, I wasn’t feeling amazing at all that day. I had a weird cramp in my stomach which then went over to where my appendix was. I tried to hide how I felt, and I think I succeeded.”
