My dad’s fine

Life's like that!, Miscellaneous Add comments

My dad today got operated at Breach Candy Hospital for two problems - prostate and hernia by Dr. Pheroze Sonawal. My dad is 70 years old. Although the operations by themselves were not major ones, anaesthisia was somewhat tricky due to his health generally and a by-pass surgery that he had undergone 4 years ago. We were a worried lot at 12 noon.

But all’s well that ends well! :mrgreen:

He is out from operation theater and is back in the normal room. He is pretty ok. I spoke to him, he responded well and was only sleepy due to the sedation that he received for operation. As of now he is not allowed to eat for a few hours. But oxygen mask will be removed and he will be given some water at 7, some other liquid at 8 and light food at 9. He will be discharged within a few days. :grin:

I felt like shouting from the roof top, but internet has a far wider reach. ;) Isn’t it?

    He is like a kid now. :( Doesn’t listen to even doctor’s advise. He is supposed to wear tight thigh high socks to control his blood pressure. He didn’t do that for 4 days after operation and on the fifth day fell down at home. He got 7-8 stiches near his eye-brow. Fortunately there are no broken bones and there is no damage internally where the operation was done.He is better now.

    Thanks for your concern.
