Edit below with update;
Gonna be visiting another hospital tomorrow, IU Med cancer center this time, happy gas or at least an I.V. at 0730.
If I miss any of @AzScorpion; @DukeCanBuildit; @Tracy Bowman ; @Trigganometry or any of my other buddies good damper jokes be sure to fill me in in a few days after I get home. Taking out the tumor and a portion of a kidney before it spreads. Been postponed 3 times already due to covid and staffing so hopefully they have it all covered. 2-4 hour surgery and 2-3 days of no rest in the hospital then home for real rest lol. Last time I was in there for 5 days and finally slept 9 hours solid when I got home. Too many bells, whistles, phones and blood pressure checks, a guy couldn't get sleep in a hospital if he paid for it. I'll check in as I can, and will someone please sign for my @AzScorpion damper T SHIRT when it's delivered, I don't want some hoodlum stealing the package off my porch while I'm gone!
??????
Update-
3hrs 45 min. 2 hrs
In recovery. Just took some more pain meds , Makin it at least an hour passed the due time, started coughing and it goes thru the roof due to all the incisions against the grain in all my ab muscles. Don't realize how much we use those until you cough, sneeze, laugh or try to sit up in this bed....
Doc said they got it all so that's a blessing . The DaVinci robot has a built in ultra sound probe that allows doc to find all the cancer and the edges and then cauterize into the good kidney tissue and take it out without bleeding. I asked about getting a DVD or link to my surgery so I can watch it.
If I get the video I can make a new thread of what I didn't do with .y Ranger today lol
