No, I’m not writing this from the hospital, I am at home. After a rather frustrating day in the hospital, I was sent home at 5pm. I was supposed to go into theatre at 1:30pm, but was warned that things might run a little late. At 3:30pm, I was feeling seriously starved, as I hadn’t eaten since 6am. At 5pm I got a call from the doctor, informing me that there were complications during the two previous operations, and they had run way over time. He said he just wasn’t comfortable operating as he was extremely tired. I can respect that kind of honesty, so I’ll be back tomorrow, and hopefully I’ll have to walk out of the hospital on crutches.
