Back to normal life...

Pooks' surgery went well. (She had it on Thursday.) She was stressed but spent most of the time asleep. I was stressed but spent my time awake and waiting. Jennifer was there with me and we passed the time by walking and talking. We were in the little "room" waiting for Pooks when they brought her back. I was slightly surprised that they had her on oxygen when they brought her in, not in a good way either. I had always associated the oxygen tubes with old people who couldn't breath... patients on their way out, but still be kept alive by modern medicine. So I was surprised, but she came in & out of consciousness and I held her hand and soon was more awake. I was ready to sleep by then though. The nurse had turned down the lights and I was sitting there and it was just the two of us and I finally started to relax. Eventually we both had to start moving around to wake up and were out of the hospital, in only 7 hours.

Friday I was dead tired still. Being tense for a whole day doesn't make for a good next day. It was rough and I wasn't the most productive for that day. This weekend too, I spent my time playing WoW and just not "doing" much of anything. In some way I needed the time to space-out. Pooks is recovering well too, she's up and about easily, still gets tired fast though, but she's not having any problems/complications from the surgery itself.
