Tonya/Re: Surgery Question

[Guest guest]

Tonya,

My surgery was at 7:30am and was over around 12:30pm. I was in my room

around 3:00pm. I did not get out of bed until around 2:00pm the next

day when the nurse took the urine catheter out and I had no choice..

(haha) The nurse did come in and gave me a sponge bath around 11:00am

the second day...What fun!

Hope this helps,
