I'm still wait-listed for stent surgery today but I likely won't know until they come to get me. In the meantime I am not to eat or drink.
If it happens and works then the earliest I might go home is tomorrow. If not then I likely won't go until at least Monday. However nothing much is definite until it happens.
You're welcome to try to visit today but you may be unlucky enough to have to wait for me to come up from the OR. Check the blog or phone before coming tomorrow or Sunday.
It happened.
I'm back from the OR and it seemed to go fine. I have a little drain bag on my right hip with bile draining into it. I'm quite groggy and in more pain than usual so I'm going to rest and come back later.
OK, now it is a little later, 6 hours or so - about 7 pm. Anne has come and gone with her chauffeur, Linda Thompson (retired CDHS teacher). I'm still groggy from the surgery and/or the morphine that is keeping me from going crazy with pain. Visits from Brian Finley and Donna Bennett, along with someone else. I'm sorry, two someone elses: I am so full of drugs I have trouble remembering. Now, Saturday morning, I remember. How about Gord Reid and Cheryl Stevenson.
I don't think there is any chance of getting out before Monday, and even Monday is unlikely.
