November 23, 2012 - Surgery Sign-off

Jan 18, 2013

I was excited to sign off on my surgery papers. It began with a visit with Monique, who took my vitals and went over my information again. I then met with Dr. B. who flipped through many forms, filling in what he needed to. He asked me what was the worst thing that could happen in surgery and I said death which was correct.  Leaks are also a risk.  The only thing I'm on is the pill and he advised me to stop taking this in advance of surgery as it increases the risk of blood clots. He had me initial / sign in a few places but it was over in about 5 minutes. He didn't have much to say so it was sort of anti-climatic but yet exciting because it's all signed and official!

Now I just wait for my surgery date.
