As we rode the elevator to the pre-op room this morning, Stephen found the whole experience analogous to travel. Restless sleep the night before. Attending to last minute details. The "hurry up and wait" factor once you get there. Going through all the check points. Longing to relax once on board.
When Stephen finally boarded his hospital bed, receiving first class care, he was relaxing. IV in place and pillows propped, he was ready to go.
Our trusted navigator, Dr. Berger, concluded the five and a half hour journey safely and with good news. The mission was successful and after a report from pathology next week about additional treatment, he hopes never to take us on this trip again.
