Today, he had his preoperative appointment. They took his vitals, ran a full blood panel, and took his medical history.
The nurse practitioner went over his preop instructions, like no food after midnight, etc… She said the surgery should take two and a half hours, but I don’t believe that one bit. An eye lid lift just on it’s own is estimated to take an hour, so I have a feeling this one might take longer. I guess we will find out in 2 weeks!
Of course healing time varies per person, and we can’t even begin to pretend to know how long that will take. It could be a few days before he is ready to jump on the computer, or it may be a few weeks. Again, we will see.
I am planning on taking the first week off of work to be home and will play a second week by ear. I can’t do my new job from home, so I may need to come in to take care of some imaging and shipping, but again, we will see.
That’s it for this update! I will try to get some before photos if David will let me, so we can post them for comparison after.
Thanks for following our journey!
