Well that was quick. From the time that we left mom in Pre-Op to the time Dr. Deutsch came out to tell us that she was waking up, we spent only 45 minutes in the waiting room. We left her wide awake and she came back to us wide awake. And hungry!!! She wasn’t able to eat anything after she went to her doctor’s visit this afternoon, so the first thing she wanted was some food. Her first nurse wanted her to just eat ice chips. Needless to say, Mom didn’t think that was a good idea, so she ate all of the bland, stupid food that they brought her, said “OK, I kept the ice chips down!”, and now we’ve just ordered pizza.

She’s doing VERY well. She feels much better than when she came in. Dr. Deutsch will be in to see her in the morning and if she looks good, she’ll get to go home. YAY!!! Mom is definitely ready to be done with all this and get on with her life.

I don’t blame her.
