A Thread for prayers, good vibes and what have you

Re: A Thread for prayers, good vibes and what have you

Asking for prayers for a local family. Wonderful people who just lost their 6 yr old to cardiomyopathy today after a valiant fight. The little boy was on the transplant list but not considered critical enough yet to proceed with the procedure. They just had a second baby after doing due diligence and being told they should be OK. It sounds as if the baby is heading down the same path with many of the same sx after looking awesome at discharge. My heart is breaking for them. They are wonderful parents. This was totally unexpected.

Just came back from a funeral today and now this.

Please consider being an organ donor.

Will certainly keep them in my prayers. It truly breaks my heart every time I hear of anyone who dies while waiting. I've known too many myself.

Yeah, I think I would want em to go a little on the heavy side personally. I can always chill out somewhere post surgery somewhere not having a care in the world while the meds wear off.

Well, not too deep. Breathing isn't underrated. I always tell them to give me just enough to keep me on the table. It takes me forever to wake up. Like days

Re: A Thread for prayers, good vibes and what have you

When I had my appy out last year, they wheeled me in. Both of the young anesthesiologists told me, "Fade, in about 15-20 seconds it's gonna sorta feel like you just polished off a 12-pack of Coors, and then we'll see you in about 2-2.5 hours." Last thing I remember was the other one saying, "Coors? C'mon surely we can do better than that." I was already too woozy to laugh or agree.

I didn't wake up until I was in the OR, and still very groggy, but not groggy enough to dull the pain in my gut. Farking thing burst right as they were taking it out, so in a way I was lucky, but not lucky enough.

Best of wishes, brooky.

Thanks to all for the well wishes. Got a story for you les. Woke up on the table during surgery. Anesthesiologist(s) screw up later explained as being "unintentionally light" on the anesthesia. Not farging cool.

Something like that. He wanted to know what I remembered from the operating room...hoping I didn't remember I'm guessing. I was able to recall a few very unpleasant circumstances and happenings on the table and the associated communications between the OR staff and the patient who was not supposed to be conscious. Not my best surgical experience.

If that was a near death experience it would be a cool story but just no anesthesia- no excuse

I woke up during a colonoscopy, certainly not nearly as bad as waking up during an operation but it wasn't fun so I can imagine.........
