Lap day!

Finally the day has arrived! I’m currently waiting in admission to be called by the anaesthesist and then the surgeon before being prepped.

If I remember correctly, it should be a while... Everyone looks on edge; support people are tired, patients are thirsty and wondering why or what we are waiting for.

I wonder what the other patients are in for... No one else is female and my age, so I guess I will be the only one today for an endo excision lap!

We’ve just been called to give our names... On the board, behind the nurses, I could see my name is second of the list... Sigh of relief, I won’t have to wait too long. Last time I was here was in June and I had to wait until 3pm in a super hot room with no window to open, I really suffered from thirst and hunger as it was 35 degrees outside!

I shall be called soon to go through first round of questions.

See you soon ladies 🎗

Ah ah it’s been canceled actually..... A nurse came at 8 am to tell me that the surgeon was too ill to perform!
