That is how long Carol has before surgery tomorrow. She can now only drink clear liquids. Last night the condemned prisoner had a steak, mushrooms, salad with her favorite salad dressing. Diet 7 Up,a sweet potato, with butter and sugar. She ate well.We like the Longhorn restaurant, and she ordered over the phone. We someohow got cut off, so I had to wait to get the order. I started to pay, and the girl behind the bar smiled, and said,"It's on the house." I thanked her, and fled. It as a good meal. I had to put my steak into the microwave, it was just a tad underdone for me. Carol likes red meat, I like mine well cooked.
But now, all she can have is clear liquids.
If we go through with this, she will next have to take that "Go lightly" stuff, and I am going to be required to empty her shit. I gag at the prospect. They tell me , this is the worst part of a colonosopy, and to her colon surgery. She has several hernias caused by the last surgery, and this is what is prompting her not to call a halt to this affair.
Anyway, we meet with the guy who puts you to sleep. he wants her to have more tests to be sure her heart can stand the time she will be under. This is going to take some time. I have a book.
