SO FAR, SO GOOD...

Well, Diana went in early this morning! Keith and I got here at 6:15 a.m. and we thought she would be in her room, but she was already in the OR. We had to ask around and finally got in to see her before she went in for surgery. She's doing great! We met her urologist, her anesthesiologist, the head nurse, and another doctor who will be operating on her today, one of Dr. Sardi's fellows.

I don't think Mom had the most pleasant of nights as she had surgery prep, and had to drink lots of awful fluids. She was looking bright and chipper this morning though--just ready to get this over with. Dad stayed overnight here with Mom on a cot "chair."

So far, we've had two calls from the head nurse to say that everything is going well. Dr. Sardi has started the operation. I think we're going to hang around 'til lunchtime, then take Dad home to get cleaned up (a good hot shower never hurt anyone!). We'll plan on coming back later this evening. We'll stay in touch!
