(Yesterday was) the DAY

Written Tuesday 1/26, ~5:30 AM.

Today is the DAY.

Nothing by mouth after midnight – no food, water, or meds –nothing.

Woke up at 4:00AM.

Took a shower with the scrub soap as a pre-operation preparation.

Lily and Diana brought me to Kaiser to check-in at 5:20 and will stand by until I come out of surgery, approximately 1:00 – 1:30PM.

I will be put "asleep" at 7:00AM, and won't wake up fully until Wednesday, being in and out of it (consciousness) today (Tuesday) after coming out of surgery.

This blog entry is being emailed for me by Diana, who also writes:

He has survived surgery and is in ICU. Miraculously, he is also sitting up. The breathing tube has been removed from his throat, too, so his recovery is going very well!
