I am having surgery on monday. The time has FINALLY come! I am stresed about it, fearful they wont find anything, scared they will.
Most importantly right now: Im worried my being sick will cause it to be cancelled. Theres been a nasty sore throat/cough/chest infection going around and I was lucky enough to have caught it by Monday morning. By Tuesday it was bad and I got sent home from work, stayed home Wednesday, came in Thursday to get things done because, hey Im having a week off for surgery and things need to get done! And by Thursday night I was so exhausted. This morning, i should have stayed home. I know I should have. But, I didnt. Because today there were a lot of things to get done, and when I look at all the things I achieved in a day, it was worth coming in.
Except, if Im not better by Monday when I do pre-admission, they might cancel my surgery. Which will cause issues at work. Which will cause me stress. Which will make the hospital mad at me! I know we cant help getting sick, and I did what I could to get better – including visiting the worlds worst doctor because I couldnt get in to see mine – but aside from a lot of R&R this weekend, and hoping like hell the cough clears up, there isnt a thing I can do.
I understand hospitals cant cut into you when you are having breathing problems, I get it. So, body of mine, please stop annoying me and get better!
