rescheduling news
May. 29th, 2008 05:34 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
There's been a fair amount of schedule-juggling to be done -- because my NEW, IMPROVED, BUY ONE GET ONE FREE double operation requires the presence of a vascular surgeon to do the work on my neck arteries as well as the heart surgeon to do the bypasses -- but at last a date has been fixed.
Monday, June 2.
Ulp.
Monday somehow seems very much closer than it did a few minutes ago.

Date: 2008-05-29 09:49 pm (UTC)I suppose it's better sooner, but eeeek.
We shall most certainly be having you in our thoughts that day. And for the days after.
I hope you'll be able to post while you're going through your recovery. Will you need to do therapy of any sort? Or is post-op focused just on getting you on your feet again, and walking? How long will you be in the hospital before you can go home again?
Love, C.

I gather there's a "heart maintenance program", or some such, which sounds to me like physical therapy, two or three times a week, I think; that'll carry on for quite a while, and I hope can be done somewhere closer than St Joe's, Paterson, which is quite a trek from here.

She mentioned a couple of days ago that you're on it, but I'll check to make sure.

Date: 2008-05-30 04:48 am (UTC)Better to get it done sooner--and with that amazing two-for-one special deal--than later. Fingers crossed and good vibes beaming your way. Will mark my calendar to check in with Pam a couple days after the surgery when things are a little less stressed.
Healing hugs,
Jean Marie

July 2, on the other hand, doesn't seem very close at all!
Thanks again for the good wishes, though!

Just been packing my bag for the Big House. After the books, DVDs and CDs have gone in, I'm not sure there's still room for the toothbrush . . .

Can't chatter. Ginormous electrical storm just starting, so have to get puter switched off. Never rains but it . . .
