Hi everyone just got home a little while ago..aghhh what a bummer. the clerk in the dr's office booked my surg on the wrong day and then didnt call me to let me know.it was her mistake and she apoligized,i dont think the dr even knew as she didnt mention it. maybe the clerk was covering her butt. since i want agood rapoor(sp?) with my dr i decided not to make a fuss. i was all set,left early thurs morning 4 dogs in the car,drove to anchorage a 4 hr drive,stopped for my preop and got the news. i handeled it well,steve did not. yikes. we went to my dd's and spent the nite and came home today. the correct surg is next friday the 6th,after my lab results showing how healthy i am the dr says i dont have to stay in the hosp at all now just in the area after the surg.so it will be day surg unless i have a complication. so will recover at my daughters till i get the all clear to come home. im sry about the cards and things i will call them and see if i can get them next week. thankyou so much for all your caring. lots of restrictions,no bending or lifting,keep the binder on at all times recline as much as i can, take antibiotics,no showering(just pta baths
) make sure that anyone that touches me wash there hands,and me too befor i empty the drains.. i wish they had called me as both my girls took time off from work to be with me and they cant afford an oops like that or us for the extra gas etc. anyways maybe there was a reason behind all this and next friday is abetter day. i always look for the full cup and not the half. steves the exact opposite and wanted to rip them a new you know what,but i told him no as i wanted steady hands from my dr,not a disturbed one. so he kept quiet but i could feel the steam blowing from his ears. anyways im home. i'll check in later ttfn
