Irish46 had her surgery this morning and is in surgical ICU. The surgeon said everything went smoothly. She is having a little difficulty becoming fully awake, but that is kinda normal for her. She wanted me to thank all of you for your support and prayers. She should move to a regular room tomorrow and is expected to go home 3 - 5 days later.

Irish46's hubby, My thanks too!!!!!!

So very glad to read this good news. Thanks for posting it.

And I don't envy this first night she will spend. Most of us have such dry mouths and the smart ICU nurses will only ration the tiniest amount of ice chips for the patients the first night -- too much water will cause vomiting. I spent nearly every waking moment of the first night arguing and bargaining with my nurse for more ice chips.

And, I wanted my husband with me every possible moment, those post-op hospital days.
Hoping all will continue well for you both .
