Wahoo Surgery

Monday morning I will be placed in stirrups, put under general anesthesia and the doctor will repair my prolapsed bladder and rectum. I never even knew your rectum could fall - so that was a surprise to me - and the bladder has definitely fallen and can't get up. I'll get a hammock to support my bladder - I've requested a LL Bean as they last so long - the doctor must think I'm crazy. Now, lets see, my ass will be in the air, all kinds of cutting and sewing going on - how big does that damn thing open up to anyway?? I really don't even want to know the answer to that one. So girls, to help keep your bladder in place you must do kiegels (sp?)- it helps to hold 'em to a count of ten and keep those muscles strong - I was under the illusion that mine were so strong that I'd be able to pick up dimes - which I also told the doctor - but alas, they aren't. I always get sick from the anesthesia so I'm not looking forward to that part - the wonderful man I'm married to will be my nurse - he sure puts me to shame as a nurse - when he had surgery on his nose I couldn't even stay in the room with him cause his nose bled so much I could smell it and I became sick. When I drove him home from the hospital his nose started bleeding real badly and I kept gagging and had to pull over to the side of the road. Those nurses sure have strong stomachs is all I can say. On top of all that I have a UTI so right now life kinda sucks for me. Wish me luck!!

Make sure to trim it up so that the doctor can find his way.
