Sept 8 2008
Not much new this morning, she is alternating between sleeping and watching “Persuasion”. Her pain level is still fairly high, but mine would too, dealing with 4 incisions.
Three small ones for the gall stone. One large one for the tumors. The doctor said it
was a bit bigger than she thought it would be, so she had to make a slightly larger incision.
She is supposed to stay in the hospital 5 days, then back here for a follow up to see when she is released to travel.
They have taken her off the intravenous pain medicine, and now have gone to oral. She will be able to eat a light meal tonight or tomorrow morning.
The care and service is amazing. They are so fast and efficient. No waiting. Unbelievable.
McDonald’s is great no matter what continent you are on. Even if it is a sausage, egg and cheese burger (not biscuit, this shore ain’t Texas ya’ll).
I wish I liked Starbucks. They have two.
Carrying three currencies is confusing.
Ruth likes Starbucks so that’s all good.
We will be looking for a quieter place to stay when she gets out. We will let you know where we’ll be. Still not sure when I will go back, but it is looking more like Wednesday. She seems to be doing well. We’ll play it by ear.
I will leave the phone card for Ruth and Jane when I leave.
More later.
Kevin
