Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hi All, Well I went to that pre-surgery class last night and it was very interesting; although, I have to say, I knew most of what they talked about. LOL I did get to ask some questions. I still have my worries about blood clots. We did get to see the PT room and I wasn't too impressed -- I don't know what I expected, but it was small. It had a tub, toilet for practicing getting in and out of and up and down from. There were stairs and a bed, I suppose to practice getting in and out of as well. And there were bars to practice walking along. I guess it has all it needs, I just figured it'd be bigger. Not too many patients can fit in it at any given time. What I really wanted to do was go ask actual patients, especially those who had surgery yesterday, how they were feeling. LOL I know that isn't possible, but it sure would have been more helpful. However; of course everyone is different with how they react, but I still wish I could have talked to an actual in-hospital patient. The class was full, each patient had their spouse, all but me. Oh well! Hubby will be home in about 1 week or so and he will be here for me when it really counts. I'm glad I went to the class but I don't think I would have had to. On the other hand, it's nice they have it for those who don't do as much research as I have. ;-) Heck, I think I could have given the class. Well, not really; just kidding. FDROFLOL. To some extent, I still think "ignorance is bliss." Have a great day everyone. Hugs,Lindy LouRight THR 1/22/2007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
