We were here at 6:00. About 7:00 they gave him Versaid, but he said he wasn't feeling any different. About 7:30 they came and got him and took him back to the OR and said it would take about an hour to get all the IV's in and everything. The anesthesiologist took a picture of Kai in the bed and John & I on either side of him in front of the surgical doors. (I can post any photos since she still has my camera. She is going to take photos for us during the surgery) I didn't cry until I turned around away from Kai, so I did better than expected. There were a couple of times I welled up, but was able to ward off the downpour.
They said they would come tell us when that was over and they were getting ready to do the surgery. Well, they just now came and said it took a little longer than expected, but he is doing fine. She didn't elaborate on what took so long. She said the next update would be about 10 or 10:30.
Barnes called me again. I can't eat or drink before my pre-op on Monday, so I did not ask them to move it to the afternoon. I can't go that long without eating unless I want to get sick. I made that mistake this morning. I drank my 2 Dr Peppers and then took my medicine and didn't eat until 8:00. Mistake! I was dizzy and very nauseous. I am finally feeling better and back to normal now (how ever normal I am:-)
I didn't get much sleep last night, only the 4 hours that my muscle relaxer knocked me out for. Once it was worn off (at 3am), I was wide awake. Something on Kai's bed kept clicking at about the same rate as his heart and bugged the crap out of me. So, I have been awake since about 3. I'm sure it will hit me in a couple of hours.
Oh, did you know that you can post comments here? They don't show up until I approve them to post, but you can post comments if you want. Tell me what you think of this blog. Is there something you are not getting from it that you would like to see? Do I sound like a total witch?
Ok, later!
