Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It’s Off To Surgery I Go
November 29th, 2005
I figured I’d put up a quick entry before I take off for a few days, even though I have nothing to write about!
My surgery is scheduled for 1:00 tomorrow, but they want me there by 10:00. What’s up with that?! How long does it take to prep a person? Then after surgery I will be there another 4-6 hours until they think I’m fit to leave. I really don’t like the whole “day surgery” concept. Last time I had surgery at this hospital they sent me home too soon, in my opinion, and I paid for it with 3 emergency room visits and finally a re-admittance for a couple days. I don’t like this hospital… anyone I know who has stayed there or been treated there has had problems, my care there has always been a joke. Well, I hate all hospitals really, it’s the last place you want to be when you’re sick! So I should be glad they only want to keep me one day. I’m bringing what I expect will be a good book and hoping for the best.
Then it’s off to my mom’s for a few days, where I imagine I would rather be hanging out in her La-Z-Boy than sitting upright at the computer! I handed in my rent cheque, finished the work I had here so my client could pick it up tonight, and I’m all packed and ready to go.
Talk at ya next week!
Good luck with your surgery,Donna!! I wish you a speeding recover as well.
You are in my thoughts and prayers, everything will be fine!
Ahh Donna they just want you there to get all nervous for 3 hours before the surgery…and to read all the magazines in their office! Geesh!
I KNOW you will be just fine, so be sure to post as soon as you can.
All the best!!
