Part 5 - The Surgery
Check in was at 5:15 AM with surgery scheduled at 7:00 AM.
I had three informative talks with the surgeon, OR head nurse, and the anesthesia doctor. All were well informed and knew about things that might complicate matters. Obviously they read my records ahead of time. Very reassuring!
I got a spinal block in the OR and some anesthesia to make me sleep. I lay back on the operating table.
......................... NA .....................
3 hours later I awaken in the recovery ward. Again very competent nurses who check me out.
Apparently the surgery was a success and I will live. [emoji16]
