So we’ve had quite the adventure here at Florida hospital. I woke up with a cold, and have been hiding sneezing and blowing my nose here in post-op (and using crazy amounts of hand sanitizer). We started out by going to the wrong building. And now we’re in the midst of waiting five hours for Pete’s kidney to clot so that we can pick up some Chipotle and go home!<\/p>\n

Everything went really well. He’s still a little drugged, but not too bad. He’s not in any pain yet, which is great. And they only gave him local anesthesia, which is awesome because I was worried about him puking all over the place after if they put him under. Woohoo!<\/p>\n

Apparently it was Nurses’ Day, so some of the nurses wore their old hats.<\/p>\n

Doesn’t this lady look sort of like a 1970’s nurse??<\/p>\n

Peter also insisted on seeing the needle they were using in his procedure. I would never want to see something like that before any kind of surgery, but he kept asking to see it. It’s doubled in half in that bag (if you include the tubes).<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

And when the procedure was done, I walked in to see this:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

A very drugged up, groggy husband that slept right through someone coding in the cat scan room.<\/p>\n

Once we go home, we’ll make an appointment with Mayo Clinic and get the results from Pete’s doctor. Hopefully the food there is as good as it was here!<\/p>\n

Now Pete is “flat-lining” himself by waving around the hand that has the pulse monitor on it. I think he’s going to be just fine. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
