So I had my surgery on July 5th. I must say guys the night before was the worst. I told my whole family that i was not going to get the surgery!!!! Well nobody listened and I ended up going to the hospital at 5am. What calmed me down was a nice talk (more like i was talking to my self) with God. And I am not pushing God on anyone ( I'm not a faithful goer at all) but I strongly feel that God works in strong ways man...
So my surgery was good. Last thing I remember was I was actually fighting the tech to not put that mask on my face... Well... I lost that battle and woke up to the kind nurses telling me not to pull the tube. But the joke is on them because I didn't feel no tube down my nose or in my throat. I was sooooooooooo PRESS to walk so I won't get any blood clots.
The 2 day hospital stay was okay.. My night nurses and tech were love.. I am actually going to send them a gift because they were awesome... My day nurse
was not that great... she left me in my room for hours and it was COLD.... Funny story though.... Mini background story... My sister and I got the surgery the same day... So after surgery the Dr. request that we get respiratory therapy meds. So when she came inside we quickly click and stared talking 15 turned into 30 mins and 30 turned into a hour. So I finally told her that my sister had the same surgery the same day and she was room 551. Well we was so engaged in out conversation that she forgot to stop the breathing treatment for my sister. So my sister was just sitting there waiting on the respiratory tech... Hahahaha...
