Surgery tomorrow:
It is after midnight and I can have any food or water till after surgery tomorrow..I did get an okay from Dr Gordon, my heart specialist, but I do have a problem with my EKG but for type of surgery it is just fine..whew..I do not know if I can lay and sit around any more..so hopefully a week from now I can do a bit more..but on my last surgery I wasn't but if you had to go to therapy the very next day and every other day for 3 weeks..you would not heal like me..but I believe the pain is my arthritis under the knee caps..I do not have to do any therapy for a week and he will give pamphlets on what to do..I am not going to them for it..as my Tri Care did not cover it 3 years ago and ended up paying $695 for that..not this time.
I was not told not to smoke after midnight but choose to do so as I am going to try and see if this is the time I will quilt..if not I will continue to try this year..Dr Gordon told to quit smoking as then other million people has lol but I will do my best..wish me luck..
I have to be there at St Frances hospital out patience at 1215 and surgery is at 2 pm..I do not know how long it will take by dh is taking me..we had to get my car back from my son who has been driving it for almost a year now..I can get up on the truck at all and will not even try. I will bring my fancy walker in case I need it buy believe I am wheeled right to the car and straight home and to bed....
I did finished all that I wanted to knit for my family in making the scarves and hats..I even have my mom wearing them..I was thrilled.
Oh, today I got the best compliment from one of the nurses of Dr Gordon..I told her I was a bit nervous because Dr Fly told me when you are between the ages of 60-70 you bones star to get soft of something like that and she ask me did you say 60..I said yes turn 60 in August..she told me that I have carried my age very well and she did not think I was over 45..Yeah!! but all my siblings and mom are always told that we do not look our age..but just haven't heard for awhile..lol It made me feel like a million bucks!!
Have a great weekend all, hugs, Lorraine
