I am home from the hospital. Thank you everyone for all your thoughts and prayers. They are much appreciated. I am so blessed. I am also so blessed because all the doctors and nurses were awesome. After I went to the back room to get ready for the surgery I had a comical experience. Two residents attempted to put an IV in me. I was dehydrated and my veins were pretty small so they had trouble but it was the way they went back and forth trying to figure out how to get the IV in my vein that made for comical relief. Plus they kept apologizing and saying what a good sport I was for putting up with multiple needles. They ended up having to call their boss so he could try and get the IV in one of my veins. This actually made the time go by pretty quickly before surgery. Their doc boss investigated the situation with my arms and found a vein. He did very well and even without using the numbing needle it hardly hurt at all. The docs trying my veins was no big deal to me. I’m used to it.
My doctor visited with me after I made it to my room as well as early this morning. This morning he said that I looked really good. It was definitely the will of God that this surgery took place. From the little bit I know both my ovaries were severely damaged. This confirmed my suspicions. God is the greatest. He knows best. I am glad to be home. I will be resting for I’m not sure how long but hopefully I will be by to visit everyone’s blogs soon. God Bless.
Ha! They should have called in the nurses. We put them in all the time. Anyway, glad to see you’re home and recovering as well as can be expected. Get some rest. We’ll all still be here when you’re ready to blog again. Praise God for a successful surgery!
It seemed like a large number of patients were scheduled for 8am surgeries. The nurses and doctors shared IV duty. Nurses have even had trouble hitting a vein when I’ve been a bit dehydrated so all in all the docs did just fine for having to find a vein when I was dehydrated. The nurses treated me great during my short stay in the hospital. They really do a wonderful job. God Bless.
Sorry you had to be poked so many times, but I am so glad you are home and laughing. Many thoughts, prayers, and love ya, God Bless, SR
Getting poked was no big deal. Maybe because the temporary pain was nothing in comparison to my endo pain I’ve been going through for months. Laughing is one of the best medicines. I’m so glad to do so but am kinda surprised that I’m laughing so soon after having surgery. But God has given me great joy and relief through the surgery. God Bless my friend.
