I will spare you the gory details, but let’s just say I had some fairly serious complications from the surgery I had on Friday and this morning started with an ambulance and more blood than you ever want to see come out of one person all at the same time. I am fine now and am at home resting, but I never ever want to go to a hospital again. I never want a catheter. I never want a nurse to tell me that she blew my vein. I never want to hear a doctor tell me that I may have to have surgery again even though I just had that surgery four days ago. I never want to have two sonograms in a row after they have deliberately filled my bladder to capacity and then clamped my catheter so I can’t pee. Oh, and I never want to have to hear that those sonograms, after all that trouble, were inconclusive. And yes, I have still spared you the gory details.
