Operation.

Hello Everyone. I am at the hospital. I am going to have my adenoids and tonsils out. This is admission, where you let the doctors know you are here. My operation is today and I will be staying the night at the hospital. I am at Murdoch St John of God. I am feeling a little bit nervous, but not too much. It is 6.30 in the morning and I can't eat anything till after the operation. I am fasting so I am STARVING.

I have just had my operation. My throat is a bit sore but I have had a lot of pain killers,  so it is not too sore. I am still a bit woozy from the anesthetics. I am wondering what pain is yet to come. Boy am I hungry.

Lunch time. I am sooooooooooo hungry. Unfortunately  my throat is sore so I can't eat much. The Milo smoothie I ordered was heavenly. I also had a jesters meat pie, mashed potato (yum!), bread roll, ice-cream  soup (yuck!).

Ted is keeping me company while I am resting. I have to wear this clip on my paw. It measures something, I don't know what (I think it is my oxygen levels and heart rate). After I came home from the hospital, I lost 4 kilos from under-eating, and got dehydrated. On the Monday after the operation, my owner said that I had to start eating properly again. On the first day, I couldn't eat without crying because it hurt so much!!!!!!! In my next blog I will tell you about my recovery.
