Hip op hurray

Arrive at hospital and head to Robin's ward. Sent back down to
Outpatients. And from there to Tom's. Sit outside Tom's for an hour
before finally being sent to Robin's...

And then hustle hustle magic cream and consultations, a quick go with
some playdough before wrestling a small child to sleep.

And now 4 hours later she's not in pain, she's eaten a bowl of cheese
and had a cup of water, she's watching her video and her greatest
annoyance is the fact that people keep interrupting her to check she
really really isn't in any pain. I guess there are times when being
naturally anaesthetic really does pay off!

Surgery all went well. She needed blood and may need more tomorrow but
she is so far amazing everyone with her general wellness.

Picture is 1 hour post op!

    Well done LF. Glad it went well. Looking at the photo - are you sure you had the op.

    I suppose it is the only benefit of having SB, the natural pain free areas.

    Keep it up and get home soon.

    So glad to hear that the surgery went well and that she is doing so wonderful post op! My first thought of the pic. was that was a pre op pic. I imagine that the rough part will be trying to keep her as calm and inactive as the Dr.'s would like while this heals.
    So thankful it went well--now take care of yourself too.
