This is Jason blogging for Meggan who is still recovering from the "cocktail" she received!
Surgery day. Long day. First you know surgery is coming, so everything moves slowly. Tv, games, internet, bathroom, breakfast - all before 9:00 a.m. - now what do we do? Finally lunch, but there's still another hour and a half before 'the call' comes. Then the time comes to wheel her down the hall, only to get a phone call saying that surgery is delayed. The waiting continues.....until you get a call saying we're still waiting. Meggan was scheduled for surgery at 2ish. She leaves me at 1:37 for prep. I then received 2 calls and a 'real person fly-by' saying "Still Waiting!"
I did get some guy movie in. Braveheart. A crazy long movie. Did not help the wait.
Success. Meggan finally got in. Five thirty - surgery began! Six thirty and Meggan is out. The doc called and said everything went fine. She did have a hole in there that he fixed. I don't know how extensive the surgery was (if there are small cuts or large cuts like last time) Meggan is now recovering. The wait is over......well no. I'm waiting for her to come up from the recovery room.
To pass time, Meggan and I played a game (before 'the call' came.) - The Settlers of Catan. If you're not familiar with the game, it's a board game in which you build settlements and roads, cities and armies with resources in your region. It's very involved, but we played and it's tied (Meg 1, Jas 1) Lets just say after surgery, I think I have the upper hand!
She's back in the room at 8:27 and is busy sleeping!
I think we need to rename the hospital to the waiting. It makes sense. Cause that's what ya do!
