Surgery this morning!

[Drew]

Well I shouldn't have celebrated so soon. The flow started to diminish soon after I posted and by 11pm I was completely shut down so off to the hospital emergency room for a catheter which removed 1300cc of urine. Returned home after 2am. So I now have a "foley bag" inserted with the bag configured like a S.W.A.T. leg holster. Who needs a gun in emergency situations? I just slide my robe to the side revealing my shit, (picture Clint Eastwood), and the bad guys go running. On a high note my nurse, John from Hong Kong, was a hoot. Best damn nurse I've encountered over the years. Great humor and great catheter inserter. Took time to talk to me and Eileen re. to my surgery. Praised my surgeon but slammed the nurses who allowed me to leave un-cathered as I hadn't peed at the hospital after 4 hours beyond recovery and it was shift change time for them. I thought when I peed what I did when I got home that I was on the fast track but learned that amount twas nothing what I should have eliminated.
