Well, it's almost 11:30. We were able to come up and wait with my mom in the pre-op area. The room she is in is private -- bathroom, tv, computer. One of her doctors is here; we are waiting on the other one. Hopefully he will arrive soon!
Mom is anxiously waiting. She has applied her lip balm and perfume and is ready to go. She has a scopolamine patch on to try to prevent post-op nausea.
She has had a string of visitors while in this room: three RNs, Dr. Landreneau's personal nurse, anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, student nurse anesthetist, med student, surgical resident, bloodbank tech, surgery nurse, etc... with more to follow!
Will update later.
