On the other side

Things went well today during my surgical procedure. I still don't have lab results, but the Dr. said she thought everything was pretty well normal. I am still a little fuzzy around the edges, but there is essentially no pain, just some twinges here and there. I'm praising the Lord for that and for the ease and expertise of all involved in my care. I really do work with a great group of nurses, and I have had the VIP treatment today. After they covered my hair with that cute blue bonnett, people didn't recognize me. You shoud have seen the double-takes when the face, sans white ring, registered. It was funny!

There are a few of the nurses who occasionally read this blog, and I want to say publicly that I would return to any of the areas I visited today--Holding; Darla, you're great; Mary, thanks for making me feel at ease; Dr. McClelland, it was fun watching you realize that I work in DSU. PACU--Sharleta and Jenni, your care was wonderful, and it was fun getting to visit with you while I recovered. I think I remember most of the conversation! DSU--I know from working with you that you are a great team of nurses. Now I know it from the patient side as well. Thank you to Connie, Estella, Doretha, Ellen and Anita.

I considered returning to work tomorrow (Tuesday,) but the Dr. kind of nixed that, so I am off until next Monday. Think I'll go lay down for awhile, I feel like I'm in slow motion.

Glad all went well. Although I wasn't aware you were having a "procedure" done, since I haven't read blogs in the last couple of weeks, I'll will be praying for a speedy recovery!
