Surgery

So on Wednesday Adam was scheduled to be a the surgical center at 9:30. I got up early because I had to go get my TB test checked and get some groceries before we went in for the surgery. Once we got to the surgical center we had to wait a few minutes before they took us back and had Adam change into a gown and started his IV. After we had sat in the room for a while the doctor came in and talked to us. I really liked his doctor he was really nice when answering all my questions. I thought that it was really funny because his doctor had on shiny black dress shoes with his scrubs. The surgery only took about half an hour and then I had to wait another half an hour for him to be out of the first recovery area so that I could go sit with him. He was pretty out of it when I first saw him because they didn't have to break his nose so it didn't even look like he had surgery. After about an hour in the recovery area they released us to go home.He didn't like me taking his picture so he kept pulling faces.

Yesterday his nose was bleeding quite a bit so we decided to go into the doctor's so that we didn't have to pay to go to the ER Saturday or Sunday. The doctor said that he nose was bleeding a bit more than he would like to see so he took out the splints a couple of days early. Adam was shocked to see how large the splints were when the doctor pulled them out of his nose. He was also very relieved to have them out because they had been causing a lot of pressure in his head.

Today he is doing a lot better a lot less bleeding and he hasn't had to take as much pain medication today. I just wish that he would lay down with ice on his nose more but I guess that would be really old after a while. Maybe by thanksgiving we will both be feeling better.
