Well November 16th has arrived and i haven't slept for two days it seems. up at 0500 i think to arrive by 0630 for my 0900 surgery at st. john detroit. i arrive at same day surgery and am taken to a little waiting room to sit with natalie until they take me to pre-op. they take me to pre-op at 0800 and the wait is excruciating, i lay in a draped off room with everyone else for their various surgeries but nobody can see anybody (patient privacy). i am finally wheeled to the surgical suite and am given my goodnight medicine.
the next thing that i remember is being wheeled into my room and seeing my wife and mom, woo hoo i made it through. much of my day is spent with a couple people visiting and i don't remember much of that day other than pushing the button on my pain pump. i was told that my wife tried to feed me a hamburger which i think i requested but that turned into a hot mess. the red jell-o was delicious though.
