I had to wait an hour beyond the appointment time this morning, but it was worth it in the end. The Professor was in an unusually jolly mood and told me that I am to check in to the hospital next Friday afternoon. Once I'm checked in, I can either stay there for the weekend or go home until Sunday. THE OPERATION IS FIXED FOR MONDAY, 29TH NOVEMBER!!! A whole day is reserved for it, which is what I expected.
The surgeon said there was no point in worrying about little infections in the meantime. Everything that needs to be fixed will be done on Monday. Until then, no antibiotics.
The recovery time after the operation is likely to be 2 to 3 weeks.
At long last - the finishing line is in sight. I am absolutely delighted.
Just in time for the Christmas period....... great news Tony, we will be praying for you on the 29th.
