Guest guest Posted October 8, 2001 Report Share Posted October 8, 2001 Thanks for the ideas on what to eat post-op. Pre-admit at hospital tonight. Asked oodles of questions. They took just 3 tubes of blood, but they are going to run 12 different tests on it all. They did an EKG, blood pressure, tempature, oxygen saturation, and I think that is it. I ate SO good today so that my numbers were good. I guess I'll find out. I have to take a pregnancy test 72 hours before surgery. Of course, that happens to be the same time my depo shot is due. HA. Next big thing is next Thursday of next week. As it gets closer, I'm kind of in a grin and bear it mode. I am NOT going to enjoy the catheter, stuff down my nose and throat. I know, BIG deal... it's worth the torture. I don't know if I posted here that my son captioned a picture this last Friday with the words, I want to kill myself. Of course, his teacher mildly freaked out and he had to speak with a counselor... they called me at work.... I silently sobbed in my cubicle. My son is okay. I honestly think that it was a poor choice of words. He was frustrated at a girl chasing him. He wanted her to stop. I asked him why he didn't write that... I am mad or I wish that she would not chase me.... I guess it seemed too simple. I'm half terrified to talk to him about it... to bring it up again. He is not only precious to me because he is my only biological child, but we share the same birthday. Can you imagine losing my sweet baby, love of my life, second only to my husband and God? OUCH. I better stop. I said goodbye to deli macaroni and chesse tonight and jamba juice. YIKES. This is so huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
