Using my blackberry to post + little loopy so bear with me.
Arrived at the hospital at 6am
Surgery at 7:30
Surgery lasted until about 11:30
Left recovery at 1:30 and delivered to my room
Helga came by at 4:00 and worked my leg
Made me stand up but was too dizzy for anything else
Tomorrow she promosed I'd be really busy
Had some pain but got a little morphine and am now comfortable
Worse thing? An old tv that canges channels only one way so if you pass a channel you have to cycle all the way around to get back.
Should go home Wed or Thur
I will post more then
