ok been calling Hamilton St Joes trying to see how my mom MaxLake made out.  Her surgery was at 8 or 9 this morning and am wondering how long usually untill you get a room My understanding was VSG was only 1.5 hours.  Dam parents with no cell phones,  Starting to get worried!!!!!!!

I cant remember how long I was in recovery for but it was a long time.  Longer because of the sleep apnea too.  They kept me there forever!

Glad that your mom's surgery was rescheduled so quickly!  Best of luck to her on her recovery.

At least you know she's in recovery and made it through the surgery fine.  Hopefully your dad will call you soon with an update.   Maybe you should get them a cell phone for Christmas.  LOL!  I got one for my dad a few Christmas' ago and it's been a lifesaver.

yes nice idea but they spend most of thier time at the cottage so there is no cellular service there not much use.  But definately in this moment wish I had given them mine to take

Your Dad is probably a typical man, and doesn't consider "in recovery" to be news fit for a long-distance telephone call!!!  I hope you get one soon though!

For whatever it's worth, I had my surgery at 1:00PM and didn't get up to the room unitl 10:30 PM.  My daughter was going nuts (even though she was in the hospital, they wouldn't let her see me).  I was fine - they were just slow getting me out of recovery.  Hang in there!
