Oh now the waiting begins in earnest {paces back and fourth}.
 
  • #53
With any luck at all, she's out of the OR and recovery already. If I know Evo, she'll be reaching for her laptop by later this evening (now that's IF Evo Child let her take it to the hospital at ALL!11 :biggrin:).

With Evo's strong personality, I doubt it...she'll probably 'ban' her from the hospital, :biggrin:

Ah, but Evo Child is JUST LIKE HER. She'd just laugh at her if Evo tried to ban her from the hospital. :biggrin:

I'm sure they could come to some sort of arrangement.. like Evo handing over her debit card! :biggrin:

If I know Evo, she'll probably fall out of the hospital bed mid surgery.

Its in their contract.

Talk to us soon Evo.

If they won't fall on their own, we hire someone to push them down.
 
  • #62
well, still waiting. Hate that time difference. Hang in there, Evo
 
  • #63
I'm sure she will be fine. :biggrin:
 
  • #64
Evo Child BETTER have instructions (and follow them) to get on here and let us know when Evo is out of surgery and recovering. By now, she ought to be out and in recovery (though likely far too groggy to tell us this).
 
  • #65
Eh Gads, no word yet{goes back to pacing}.
 
  • #66
You don't suppose the Evo Child doesn't follow instructions, do you?

Gads I hate waiting.
 
  • #67
Grrrrrrrrrr...... I'm starting to get that 'Pit Bull with lipstick' feeling.

OK. Deep breath. Relax. We'll hear something soon...

I think this is officially the waiting room thread now. Who wants to play checkers?

I wonder if Evo is up and holding court with the handsome male nurses?
 
  • #69
I didn't bring my checkerboard, but we could play Go Fish. :biggrin:

oh, yeah. I know that game. Isn't that where you say, "do you have any threes?" and I say, "no, go fish", and then you whack me with a frozen cod? Think I'll pass for now. :biggrin:

Wow, your a dirty lot...lol, but then again, I bet a few of the guys are plotting to converse with Evo Child as well.

Oh come now; I wouldn't whack that hard. o:)

What happens, then, when I get my checker to your side of the board and say, "Crown me"? Do you bonk me with a frozen tuna?

It works like this, they start at the head and wash down as far as possible. Then they start at the feet and wash up as far as possible. Then they hand you the sponge and you wash possible.
 
  • #75
Relax guys, Evo child is probably keeping Evo in the hospital to meet the handsome doctors. Hope she'll be kind enough to give her a laptop.
 
  • #76
First thing I thought of when I read about this fundowhatshamathingy was that starfish evert their stomachs for external digestion...

Made me wonder if this ability will now also be counted amongst the myriad of superpowers Evo already possesses...

Scary stuff! :bugeye:
 
  • #77
Liquid food, right, coming up.

Oops, Sorry Evo, I dropped your jar with hunny

I'm worried, hope she went to the right Doctor.

:smile: Maybe if we dangled a debit card on a string, she'd show up to give us a report. (Okay, who has the lowest bank balance? We don't want her to get too far with that once she has it, Evo still needs a few weeks of nursing care.)

Gads I hate waiting.

Same here. I was hoping to find something by morning, Evo Child checking in before heading off for visiting hours or something like that. :frown:

*starts pacing again* With all this pacing, Greg's going to have to put a new floor in here next. I think we're wearing a hole in that spot there.

My bank balance is negative, you can use my card (if i can find it) as a lure.

Ooh, perfect.

Okay, Evo Child, here's a really nice, well-broken-in debit card for you if you tell us how your mom is doing. :biggrin:
 
  • #82
Debit card incentive. Hrm. We may just get that desperate for news.
 
  • #83
Evo Child is grounded for life! :smile:

OK. Everyone relax ('specially ME!). She's probably going to be discharged later today (unless she can't leave her handsome male nurse :biggrin:) and she'll be online this evening. Or tomorrow. Or something. Dang. This sucks.

I figure she's probably too drugged up to post. Still, how could she not leave instructions with one of her daughters to let us know she's in recovery and the surgery went okay or whatever? She knows we will be worrying until we hear something.

Too drugged up, my buns! I managed to post while I was on drugs after my hip surgery. OK, so my typing and spelling missed the mark a few times. I still got my point across (I think...:biggrin:) And Ivan kept everyone up to date until I could 'talk'. No doubt about it. Someone in Evo's family is in DEEP doodoo.

Now I'm worrying that we haven't heard anything because something DIDN'T go well, so Evo's not in any condition to post and her daughters are too preoccupied to do so. :frown:
 
  • #87
She'll be fine guys, don't worry. Probably not been discharged yet, and can't surf on her cell phone since she's in a hospital! We'll just have to wait and see for a few more hours...
 
  • #88
I suppose coming back and checking every hour or so won't improve the no-news situation, huh?

maybe she talked that male nurse to feed her ice cream and Jello in bed, water her plants, and to keep her tucked in (at her place)

I guess it is a big deal having some one re arrange ones guts, so i bet she will feel sicky for some time, i saw a docu about a gut operation and they fill it up with water to be sure there are no leaks, so i hope Evos doc is a good seamstress, any way up i am sure Evo will be posting soon.
 
  • #91
Do I remember correctly, that she said it could be anywhere between 1 and 3 days in the hospital?

Yes, and I don't think she planned to have a computer with her (maybe no connection there if she did have it, or perhaps not safe to use with all the monitors). BUT, we did give pretty clear instructions to have Evo Child let us know she was doing okay. I just hope she hasn't done anything stupid like trying to get out of bed herself while drugged up and falling over and popping all her stitches and having to have them redo it all again...:rolleyes: But Evo would never do anything like that, right? :rolleyes:

When was the last time the Childe or Spawn were on PF anyway?
 
  • #94
I can't find either 'SpawnofEvo' or 'EvoChild' on the members list. Weren't those their actual screen names?

No, but I can't remember what their nicknames were.

Oh dear god, where to begin.

First, I am home. There was a severe thunderstorm last night and Evo child didn't go back to my place.

Thank you to everyone for all of the comments, it made me laugh. :devil:

I will write up the horror story of "The Hospital Stay From Hell".
 
  • #97
Hooray!

(And there was much rejoicing ...)
 
  • #98
well, welcome back!


(so you stomuched all the wild comments?)
 
  • #99
Hey Evo! :biggrin: Welcome back! Glad to see you're still here.

The hospital was filled to capacity, so what was going to be a private room ended up first with the almost deaf HILLBILLIES THAT HAD TO SCREAM OUT EVERYTHING, then ending with Evangelical Christian Fundamentalists that are certain we are near Rapture.

I'm waiting for pain meds to kick in, seems I have blisters in my throat that are preventing swallowing right now, so instead of anyone checking my throat this morning when I couldn't swallow a pain pill, just switched me to a liquid. I just looked in the mirror, I look like I have strep.

EDIT:I am not responsible for typos at this time. Edits will be happening.
