Day 9 - October 8, 2008

So, no surgery today. They had some traumas come in, so if they were to do the surgery today, we wouldn't be getting the best surgery team. Given the complexity of this particular surgery, they want only the best working on her. Therefore, she's the second case on the schedule tomorrow. If, for some reason, the first case cancels, she'll go to surgery around 7:30 or 8:00 am. If the case doesn't cancel, she'll go mid-morning to late afternoon. So, we're a little disappointed, but if we'll have a better surgical team, that's more important. Given they are planning surgery tomorrow, we won't be getting the ventilator off today. None of this is really a setback, just a delay. More tomorrow!
