Surgery

Finally, I went in for what was supposed to be day surgery. During my recovery I sprang a leak. I guess a blood vessel in my foot popped and I bled profusely before anyone noticed. I only remember a nurse saying I'm holding it. I guess I was wheeled back into the operating room so they could correct the leak. Apparently I lost enough blood that they considered a transfusion but then decided against it. My blood pressure (normally on the high side) crashed for days. I came out of surgery with a soft cast, 2 screws and 5 external pins. I ended up being admitted.
