Well Thursday was much the same throughout the day and by late afternoon things began to change and quickly. Around 5'ish the nurse came in and said the transport service for the hospitals was ready to take GG to the main campus in down town Miami. What a mega complex in this area with all types of medical facilities. Parking is a premium with several high rise parking garages as well. The university of Miami Medical School is also in the area, anyhow they moved GG and we met up with the staff in her private room. They were very nice and accommodating as well. Nancy and Diane spent the night there with GG. I was starting to feel the effects of no sleep, cold conditions in the hospitals and eating out for the past several days and out of my daily regiment of vitamins and supplements as well as taking Betsy to the walk-in clinic for her cough on two separate occasions. Seems I may have contracted that cough as well with some tightness in the chest and sporadic coughing.
GG is scheduled to be one of the first for surgery this morning and she has already gone down for pre-op as I write this post. She seemed in good spirits last night with everyone gathered around her bedside and the staff was very helpful and cheerful. I'm going to try to come home sometime today if I don't make a VA stop for this cough. The VA facility is on the same exit off I-95 and if I don't feel better by lunch time I may go for an ER visit for some meds. The cough has subsided for now this morning and a sleep alone helped with no distraction by the snoring of Nancy, oh well. I think it may be time to invest in a Syppha for her. Well that's about it until we hear from the hospital on how GG did during the surgery. Betsy's boy Braden drove down from Clearwater and spent the night as well and will do so until Sunday evening. I'm hoping to go home today to resupply and then come back on Sunday evening so I can taxi Nancy and Betsy to and from the hospital, LATER
