This isnt really a blog just a way to let my friends on here know how Dad got on with his op. He arrived at the hospital to be told he hadnt had a pre-med and they wouldnt operate (Me and mum couldnt understand why he hadnt had one but you dont tell the experts their job).He kicked up! Hes been so worked up about it so they decided to do the pre med then. His blood pressure was up (hardly suprising as he suffers with high blood pressure without making him even more uptight about not having the op). They bought in a cardio doctor and decided to do his op. They took out more than they had intended to not because it was anything untoward just to try to prevent any future problems. He came out of the anaesthetic really well and the doctors were impressed with him as he is nearly 70! Today he was really upbeat and i think he actually 'enjoyed' his time at the hospital. He was in a waiting room with several other men from 20 yrs old up and he said to them 'we arent in a dentist surgery - lets all chat and kill time!' I think they all reassured one another. Hes never short of a word or two bless him. When he got home Mum found he had the cardio pads on still. He has been out walking today and sounded really good when i spoke to him this lunchtime
