Surgery is today

My nasal polypectomy will be sometime after 1200 today. It's a very straightforward procedure; an hour under general anaesthetic, then a few hours in the recovery room, then [livejournal.com profile] spikeylady takes me home in a taxi, then a week off work. They don't even need to make an incision.

Will add a wee kiss to go with the wishes as well! When you're all bettered up David's offered to take me to London to see you! He was at the last Polyday and would like to meet you! :) All the best honey, you'll do great! xxx

"I'm sorry, I can't come to work today, I've got a nasal engagement"

And that joke has all the subtlety of a charging...rhino.

Thinking of you all day today baby xx

Hoping all goes well! Would be good to arrange a date when you're better if you'd like - I should be in London a few times before the end of the year.

Yes, definitely! I'm going to see how I'm recovering before I make any plans, but I shall start looking at my diary in the next few days. Do you know when you're going to be in London yet?

Well, I'll be there for the halloween party at yours, but I assume that's probably too soon to the operation! Plus I don't have much spare time that weekend, due to other arrangements. Apart from that, I'm not entirely sure yet, but I should know soon and will let you know :).

Let me know if you want extra company next week at all. Hope it goes well. Xx

Good luck, I'm already thinking of a thousand nose based puns to cheer you up with next week.

*hug* all the best

Hope it all goes smoothly, and the results are just what you wish for!

[identity profile] slightlyfoxed.livejournal.com 2008-10-24 10:40 am (UTC)(link)
Yay! And hope it's totally manageable, and sorry I was pulling faces in the pub at your description of the process. It is fascinating, futuristic and hopefully highly beneficial.

Yay nose!

I'll be on the sidelines rooting for Medical Science.

So you'll have a deep, resonating James Earl Jones voice afterwards?

Currently it doesn't - if anything it smells somewhat of blood, but not much...

Glad to find you getting better!

Looking forward to hearing from the New and Improved You. Hope it goes quickly and easily and you get LOTS of fawning and TLC from your adoring lovers.

Or, alternatively: hope you get a clear path so you can blow straight through to recovery.

[identity profile] plumsbitch.livejournal.com 2008-10-24 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
oof! Hope it all went well and that you're tucked up at home now.

Am really confused. I think someone else on my friends list is also having nasal surgery soon.
