That's the anesthesia talking...

Dane’s surgery today went well. There were no problems and he is doing fine. When he started waking up from the anesthesia he was quite goofy! His aide came to get me in the waiting room and told me all he has been doing was sitting up every couple of minutes and asking her “What do I have to do to get my wife in here?” she kept telling him he needed to lay down and relax. He kept doing this over and over until she came to get me. While we were back in recovery he said so many funny things…

Dane to the nurse: I forgot your name.
Nurse: It’s Rebecca
Dane: Do they call you nurse Rebecca?

*The nurse was giving us discharge instructions and was telling us to eat foods easy on the belly, like toast. Dane piped up and said pointing at me “She really good at making toast.” Thanks my love!!!

*His sat monitor kept alarming and he was so mad he kept sitting up and glaring at it. He alsokept asking what that damn thing was, and once when it woke him up he said “Why do I need that thing? I’m not lexy I don’t need it.” ( Lexy is our 2 year old neice!)
He also got very mad whenever the B/P cuff would go off, he tried to rip it off ever time!

*On the way home he just wanted a milkshake. We stopped in Kaysville and went through the drive-thru. After ordering we pulled up in line to get our shakes. Dane must have decided he did not want to wait. He took off his seatbelt, opened the door and was trying to get out before me and his grandma grabbed him and told him he needed to stay in the car!!!

*After this he stayed in the car, but he kept sitting up and he needed to lay down to reduce the bleeding. He was falling asleep and falling forward when I woke him and told him to lay down. He woke right up and said “Oh you wanted to see this.” Holding his I pod touch up to his grandma to show her some game he was playing!

He has been very funny all day! I am excited the surgery is over and hopefully in about a week he will be his old self and be pain free!!!
*Thanks anesthesia for a entertaining day*
