Pre-Op Procedures Monday, May 22, 2006

Genevieve arrived at 9 a.m. for pre-op, it was an easy paced morning and afternoon of tests, tests and more tests.


<----Nurse Tina made sure that all the rounds were made to all the departments; logistics and kindness was her specialty.


First up was an EKG, that wasn't so bad save for all the wires and stickers, and it took 3 people to hold Genevieve down. --->



<---Then it was time for a chest X-ray. That wasn't so bad either.



Then it was time to see my cardiologist Dr. Dodd; she is always glad to see her patients. --->





<---The worst part was the middle of the day, drawing blood can never be good when you are this little.


On to more surgical information, day of surgery procedures and a chance to finally taste Nurse Tina's stethoscope.->




<---Finally a nap.



As you can see, I am ready for my Tetralogy of Fallot open heart surgery at 5:30 a.m. tomorrow --->
