March 12. This is following a March 9 appointment with all the doctors and the final pre-surgery checkups, etc. I think everyone is ready.
Pam and I both have been harping about the need for extra care by the anesthesiologist. I think this is a critical area that Mom has always had problems with, and I believe it caused her current condition. This is something we have told both Mom and Dad to mention STRONGLY when they go for pre-op appointments.
Otherwise, everything is going fine. Life in a nursing home has its own unique society, and it is one that Mom has had some experience with, just- fortunately- not directly with her or in her room. One "friend" she met there died over a month ago and one former roommate passed away just this past week. It paints a little different picture of everything; and a somber reminder that we want her to work hard and get her out as soon as possible.
Continue to keep her in your prayers as we get closer to - not D-day, but Knee-day: March 12.
