The Life and Times of Speedy & Whit: Surgery Day

Surgery Day

We got to the hospital at 8:15 this morning. It only took us two tries to find the right place. We filled out paperwork and then waited, and waited and waited. Finally at 10:00 they took him up to surgery. He did great in surgery but had a hard time once he woke up. He couldn't keep anything down. They let us go around 12:30 and good thing they sent us home with a bed pan. Slatin put it to use on the ride home. He couldn't keep anything down. I gave him his pain medication and he threw that up. Poor guy. Finally at about 6 tonight he was able to eat a popsicle and keep it down along with some meds. I hope tonight is not bad and he can get some sleep.

Here he is patiently waiting to go upstairs

After they gave him some wonderful medication to make him sleepy

Coming out of the surgery.
