Hey Zib, I'm still sending prayers your direction. Will they be giving you status reports during the surgery, or not until they're closing? Every few hours.

Hang in there - I can understand you not wanting to leave his side - with my dad, it was scary, and like being on a roller-coaster. And your're more "intimately" attached - since he's the love of your life.
As for the ass-hat Security Guard, I'm siding with mmhmm - their job is to keep things safe for the patients AND any family/visitors in the hospital. Him saying it's not his job or responsibility is inexcusable.
One of my nieces worked Security here at one of the hospitals until recently. Some of her stories of things she dealt with or were going on inside were pretty interesting. And if walking a person to their car was requested, one of them did it.
Not wanting to hijack your thread, but if you (or anyone else) think I'm talking out of my hat, this is a pic of her standing on the hospital roof where she worked, in front of one of the STARS airlift ambulances (helicopters): (STARS is an acronym for Shock Trauma Air Rescue)

That's a shame that security won't escort you to your car. Security at the hospital where I volunteer will always walk folks, employees or visitors, to their cars after dark if they ask. Maybe there will be a shift change before long and you can approach a different security guard. You might just have encountered the resident jerks.
Are you by yourself in the waiting room, or is there someone else there you can talk to? I hope that the chairs are comfy, at least.
More good thoughts coming your way for your DF and you.

Hi Zib. Just caught up. Here in Milwaukee Froedtert Hospital is a level one trauma center, Children's Hospital and the Medical College of WI are part of the same complex. I have been there many many times and their security is wonderful. They would never refuse to walk you to your car!
Praying for a successful outcome.

Oh zib, I just logged in and saw this for the first time. Just wanted to add my name to the list of those who are praying for you, your DF, the medical personnel involved, and the donor's family. Such a wonderful gift they have given you & your DF at what must be a traumatic moment in their lives...God Bless all of you

Zib, I wish I could give you a set of my earplugs so you could get SOME sleep. The kids & I have some appointments early tomorrow, but I'll check in first thing to see how you're doing. Sending you <HUGS>, & hoping you're feeling all of the positive energy coming from the gang here.

It's over! He's doing well, the doctor says. Can you believe the princess showed up? She's not even supposed to be allowed access and but because she's obviously ignored me, she didnt get the info that the doctor gave me which included to wait in a different area.

Someone is giving her info. I'd like to know who is. She managed to find her way into this area as well. Still ignoring me, of course.

Sooooo!!! Happy !!!!! To hear that it's done, and he's doing well in recovery! A HUGE thumbs-up from me for the surgical team!!!. That's WONDERFUL news! Hang in there, kiddo - now you can take a big sigh and exhale. Be sure to tell him when you see him that we were all right there with you and him while this was playing out.
Now breathe !! Ignore the Princess (that's unimportant). What's important is that it was a smooth surgery without complications, and he's resting comfortably. I hope you get to see him soon. It's been a long day/night for you.

That is great news!!! Hopefully you can get some rest soon. Don't get too run down. He needs you there but not sick! And don't worry about the Princess. It is her dad and maybe him seeing that she does care and is worried about him will make him happy. He needs to be happy right now to get through this.

Congrats, Zib! I'm glad to hear that DF is doing well and got a "newer model"! Try to get some rest and take care of yourself. You will need your energy to drive the cart for him when he gets back on the course...

Glad to hear everything went well. We are praying for DF, we can pray that the princess has a "change of heart" too while we are at it.

What great news to wake up to this morning!! Get some rest yourself today, he will need you more as he begins his recovery. As for the Princess, you'll figure things out.

I am so glad it went well. I will keep praying for his recovery.
I agree with the others, don't let the princess get to you. It is possible that this situation could help her change for the better, or at least make DF happy that she cares.
