The Countdown Begins

Good Morning Campers! I just got of the phone with Michelle at Royal Jubilee Hospital.

We have a date for surgery, April 13th at 8am.

No it is not a Friday I checked.




So on Tuesday April 13th, I will have to be at the hospital by 6 am. A special package of instructions will be sent within a week, and a new blood thinner will be called into the pharmacy.

I also found out that I will not be in the hospital for more than one night. This is good news, originally I was told 5 days, with a month of recovery. Perhaps this too will change and I will be able to dig holes in the garden sooner than I thought.

That's it for now, I will post updates as we get closer to the procedure. It's been a long wait and now at least we can get back to (so called) normal.

  1. Thanks for saving me a trip to the calendar. The Friday 13th thing was the first thing I thought of, too. lol Glad to hear that you finally have a date and that they don't plan on keeping you in there for too long. xoxo
