Ive been on a waiting list for an operation (umbilical hernia) for a while now.Yesterday, while at work I got really sick and realised that my Projectile Display was actually digusting some people out. (VERY embarrasing!) So Nasty came and picked me up and took me to the hosptial where I ahd to have an "emergency operation" for an incarcerated sp? hernia. Sounds waaaay more glamorous/gross than it was! What a weird experience though....
I was at the hospital by 4pm, operated on and back in the ward by 10pm and discharged by 10.30am this morn. Stoked I was!
Great staff! I have a largeish tattoo over my stomach where my hernia was, I got this when I was 16 and it wasnt *professionally* done or anything so its uneven and ugly. So I told the doc not too worry about it when cutting me open but he insisted. When I had the wound redressed this morning, I could see that he has patched it up perfectly (dissolving stitches) and he made one insition where my tat was crooked and fixed it up a bit. And I thought he was awesome just cause of the drugs he prescribed me
Im pissed off though....
Cant get on a race track for 6 weeks. I missed the last track day and I will have to miss this one, bums! However I convinced him that I could still ride my new to me bike (which I was gonna ride home from manfeild) to work next week onwards.
Oh yeah, Im not allowed to lift anything heavier than a 6 pack of beers for 6 weeks AND not go back to work till Tues. Life can be hard, eh?!
BTW - Thanks for everything Nasty and Moo!![]()
