The Long Wait

Last report at noon was that Katherine is doing well and will soon be out of O.R. #4. An hour and a half has since passed and Darren (Katherine's husband) hasn't yet been paged to go and see her. Our family calls it "hospital time". "Soon" means different things in different places.

Esther was asleep in O.R. #3 when I left her side at 11:00 a.m.

We all enjoyed Esther this morning as the effects of her pain medication made her quite disinhibited. She was talking non-stop and seemed to say anything and everything that crossed her mind. It was quite entertaining! We'll have some good stories to tell her when she is no longer under the influence. It was great to laugh and break the tension of waiting to go down to the O.R.
