Update: Valentine in intensive care - a strange turn...
It was time for the preparation for heart surgery when the cardiac surgeon personally entered the hospital room. “There's a problem, “he said. The combination 'problem - cardiac surgeon - hospital room - patient just before surgery' is highly disturbing, I can assure you.
'A human being has been brought in who will die today if I do not operate on him now, 'the surgeon continued. “Your operation is less urgent, so I have to postpone your operation until Monday. “
Those who missed the original blog might want to take a look below to see what's going on:
It just had to settle.
Then you lie there, as a patient, already from the last morning in a hospital room, they've already done all the preliminary examinations, you've taken sleeping pills to get some sleep that night, you haven't had breakfast that morning, you've already taken your stomach protectors, you're already pretty nervous For what awaits you, the tray with the material to prepare for your heart surgery is already on the table... and then you can go home.
It was very strange to sit together at the table again, in our own house.
On the one hand a bit disappointed that we are not yet a step further, that we have to drive again to the hospital on Sunday.
That the operation is still not over.
But on the other hand, glad we're not that urgent case, whose lifeline is in the hands of that cardiac surgeon.
