Less than 36 hours to go!!

[Guest guest]

WellI have less than 36 hours to go! After my daughters dance recital today

she went home with my mother in law(because surgery was originally scheduled

for 11/17 before changed to 11/18 and she lives over an hour a way so I didnt

want her to have to drive back tomorrow ) When I was telling my daughter (who is

almost 3) bye It took all I had not to cry. All day for the last 2 days I

have found myself fighting back tears about EVERYTHING...Kind of reminds me of

when I was pregnant..LOL Anyone experience this BEFORE surgery?? I know it is

something we go through after...I know all drs and all hospitals are different

and each person is different but I have a couple questions.

For those of you who went to ICU for the first 24 hours. if you arrive in ICU

between visiting hours did they let your family see you? Then after that they

had to follow visiting hours?

How long after surgery before you have something to drink?

Anyone with Sleep Apnea. Can you PLEASE email me privately. I have a couple

questions.

I still am not conciously *spelled wrong* scared or nervous. But I think it

will hit me soon enough.

Good Luck to everyone having their surgeries this week.

Also, this question is being asked for my mom.

Anyone who is like a year or two post..What does a typical day consist of as

far as excercise and meals..what types and how much.

THANKS

Crystal

Hi Crystal, I stayed in ICU the 1st 24 hrs and my family was allowed to visit

me as soon as I was settled in my room. They had to follow visiting hours

after that. I just barely remember them being there.

I didn't get anything to drink until after my leak test the following

afternoon.

Good luck to you and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
