I went home at 2:30. Came back at 8. He had a good night and his lungs are clear. So far, so good. As far as Princess, I brought my medical POA. She won't be sneaking in anymore because I said no visitors until he's awake and can decide for himself. The staff was uncomfortable with it but I pointed out it says medical directive, no telling who made the call. She just showed up and was told to leave.

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. Yeah that!

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. Yay! Wonderful news! So, so happy to wake up and see this!

Great news and happy you were able to get home for awhile. Did you have an escort to your car when you left during the night? If not, it might be worth a complaint to the hospital, as you're not the only woman who is fearful about getting to their vehicle.

I asked the ward clerk. Female and terribly upset about what was said to me. Security drove me to car and waited to make sure it started and I was gone. A perk-he was cute!! Nice way to end a LONG day. Can't wait to tease DF about cute security.

Hope all is well. Waiting for the update once you are awake and on-line again.
ETA: I am having PB issues. When I posted this the last entry I could read was Zib's from 11 hours ago. I post this post, scroll to the top and an entire page is now visible.
Time to read and perhaps delete this in a bit...

Good heavens, it's been 10 days since he made the list! That s a miracle. The heart's a good one, the surgery is on, and its going to be a long night. That man will do ANYTHING to get out of the Moody Blues concert !
Snort - Sug - that's the 1 song I forbade being played at our wedding. DJs didn't think anyone would ask for it but I was taking no chances.

And I'm so glad it when though. Now we just need updates when he gets out and Zib gets some sleep.

Congrats and best wishes for a speedy recovery & now to get on w/the wedding plans. Start a new thread for that please. But not right away.
I have to come up with funny things to kid her with - about flaunting her sexuality in my face because of a vow I made in another thread.

Thank you for the update Zib. I'm so glad things are looking good.
As an aside, I do hope you and DF can agree on some kind of charitable donation in honor of the donor.

Glad to hear DF is out of surgery and "bonding" with his new heart! Sorry the troublesome daughter showed up but I think it's a good idea to let him decide if he wants her there, or not, once he's able to do so. He doesn't need a lot of folks tromping around right now, anyway. The first few days after this surgery are exciting, but difficult. He needs to regain his strength and he needs your support to do so. He doesn't need bickering and he doesn't need demands made on him.
Glad to hear you got taken to your car. That security person who was so rude needs to be reported to his superiors. I'd have been mortified if our security had treated a visitor in that manner!

How remarkable. It all went down, from beginning to end, so fast. A whirlwind of medical activity. From hope of one kind to hope of different kind in just a matter of a few hours. Ain't medical science great.

Yes. In a way it reminded me of labor. You're there forever and then, whoa, it all happens at once.

If someone wants to merge the threads, that's fine with me. I don't need two of them. It's REALLY not all about me, I promise.

Good Morning Zib! So glad to get the news that everything is going well!
Not sure if the "princess" actually has a heart, or, if she was hoping for an inheritance...

Have they given you and info on who the donor was? age or anything? Certainly not a name, but just curious what you could be told.

Not sure if the "princess" actually has a heart, or, if she was hoping for an inheritance... Could go either way. I'd have let her stay, I think. As long as she wasn't impeding me or anything. But I'm not dealing with the realities of her and her shit like Zib is so who knows.

Oh Zib....I just saw this and am so awesomely glad everything went well. You both have been in my prayers for a long time. Prayers for a speedy recovery now and a blessed long life for you both to enjoy together.
Mmhmm? Please catch a plane to that hospital and take care of that security guard.

I'm kinda scared to celebrate in case I jinx it but other than the really long day/night in hospital, it all went so smooth.

DF doesn't want the kids to see him like this. That's good enough for me. Ok. I hadn't realized that. What a different family dynamic from my own - we gather at the hospital and wait together. And there's enough of us that the hospital tends to find us a room - although at the time of Dad's stroke giving us a room might have been pushed on by me asking about a place to breastfeed.
