Beginning of a long day
I just started my first stint in the waiting room.
We arrived this morning at 7:30am to get the Gamma knife robotic thing calibrated. They put about a dozen reference dots around her head and took a complete MRI. She looks like she’s about to enter the Matrix. Yesterday afternoon she got a hair cut to simplify the shaving today. Her hair is shorter than mine. Our daughters said she looked like a little boy.
She’s in Pre-Op now. I can see in her eye’s that she’s scared. I just turn up the jokes-nothing overtly offensive or racist. Things I know she’ll laugh at.
The nurses are going to call me when she’s ready so I can sit with her a bit. This is going to be the last time I see her before the operation. I’m composed but scared. I’m not sure what I’m going to say.
