Got to be on yr toes, listening good and responding and being ready to go in and do battle.
Pre-op, that is almost a doddle - though stressful, as they play 'pass-the-parcel' with you! But no battle as such involved. Bring a book. Bring in a thingy player. Meditate. Then go indulge in a plateful of yr fave ice-cream - you 'earned' it gal.
Disability hearing. Stressful. Don't forget to ask for a chair. Bring water with you. Be pathetic. (IF you can...!)
May 2 - relax, you will be in good hands. Strong thoughts and good guidance to the surgeon and his group.
All power and white light to you hon - Bless.
