He checked in at pre-op about 35 minutes ago and were told his surgery isn't scheduled until 11 a.m. The waiting room was packed and asked the volunteer if it was possible for him to lay down until he has surgery. After his blood patch (also done here) yesterday morning he was told to lay flat and rest as much as possible in the next 24 hours.
They found a bed for him to lay in until surgery in the recovery room but I can't be in there. So I'm hanging out in the cafeteria down the hall with my little pager that will go off when he is out of surgery which could be as late as 1 or 2 p.m. depending upon how the schedule goes.
Thankfully there is wireless access and I have my files about all this new cancer stuff to organize and papers to fill out and phone calls to make to pass the time.
His surgery today is to put in a triple-lumen catheter for when he starts chemo and hopefully we'll find out Friday when that will be.
