My friend arrived at the hospital on the morning of April 21st ready for surgery but not feeling too well. The early tests before the surgery showed an elevated white blood cell count and she was running a fever. A little more work revealed she had a bladder infection and the surgery was called off. After seeing her primary care doctor the surgery was rescheduled for April 29th.
Tuesday, the 29th, came and she once again arrived at the hospital. Everything was good to go and the surgery took place. The doctors managed to complete both parts of the procedure in just over four hours instead the seven they had predicted. My wife and I felt that Wednesday our friend would be too out of it for visitors so we waited until Thursday to go see her. We stopped at the hospital on our way home from work and she was looking great! Well, great when you consider what she went through. We asked how she felt and she told us she felt well enough to go home. I didn’t think she was serious until I saw her bag was packed. She actually was ready to go home and was waiting for her son to get off work so he could come get her. We couldn’t see the sense in keeping her in the hospital when she could be at home in her own bed so we drove her home. Her daughter met us there and will be taking care of her for the next month.
She’s sore and has some difficulty moving around but she was thrilled to be out of the hospital and back in her own bedroom.
Hello Tony. Glad to read your friend came thur like she did, I was thinking about her. THE DREAMER
