Nine and a Half Hours
This will likely be my last entry for a few days. Michele will be with me and she will be writing about whatever is going on. Until I’m back, be sure to follow along on her blog.
Basically there are nine and a half hours to go. Surgery is scheduled for 7:30AM MST; we need to be there at 5:30. I’ve no idea what will be going on for those two hours. I hope it’s not just a bunch of sitting around. Dr Meltzer said to figure that the surgery will be finished about 3 ½ hours after 8AM. Michele hasn’t yet decided exactly what she’ll do during that time. She can come back here for a while or hang out there. I know she wants to stay close but there’s really nothing for her to do but wait. At that point it will he harder on her than it will be on me.
Dr Meltzer said that there really isn’t a lot of post surgery pain, less than what I had with my hernia surgeries. I hope he is right.
Interesting anecdote: during the physical exam he remarked on my genital electrolysis saying that I’d likely have to do some more between this vaginoplasty and the labiaplasty. He mentioned that when he first started telling people that they should do the genital electrolysis he didn’t really believe that people would actually do it. Yeah, it hurts, but it beats having hair growing out of your vagina.
Talk to you again in a few days. Thanks for being here with me.
