I was only 10-15 minutes "late," but still

My hysterectomy went much much longer than they thought it would. When I woke up in recovery, I had at least three different people come to tell me that my husband had to go home and walk the dogs and he would be right back. Then someone brought me a note that said the same thing. Poor guy literally told EVERY SINGLE EMPLOYEE HE SAW because he was so worried and made them all promise to tell me. Adorbs. Really, at that point all I was thinking was "ow."

I think I've told this story before, but my mom and my sis waited until my 6-hour jaw surgery was over. They talked to me in the recovery room and then left. But then I woke up later with no memory of seeing them, so I was mad that they left before I woke up from surgery.

I have never had anyone come to my bedside right after surgery! Not even when I was a teenager living at home.

I'm not entirely sure what they were doing instead. Waking up after the foreign body removal from my foot was horrible and stressful and the nurses hated me because I kept paging them. No family showed up until the next morning.

Out of surgery. Now she us being admitted overnight.

Tommy - that reminds me of when I had Kelly. KCD, my mom, and my FIL were all at the hospital for the birth. After they oooohed and ahhhhed over the baby, they left to go to Denny's. I was awake for all of that, but I felt quite abandoned. Kel is 3 months away from 21 and I'm still tweaked.

Holy he'll. 3 year olds out of anesthesia are psychotically angry.

What for, Kat? Were there complications? Is Grace ok? I hope it's not serious.

3 year olds out of anesthesia are psychotically angry.

Yeah, that's never fun. Both Owen and Liv came out of their dental surgery pissed off and confused. Not a good combination.

Huh. When I was four I had my tonsils out. I woke up angry, and refused ice cream due to the anger.

I wake up angry and trying to escape.
