Surgery and Mac...

Hi I know this is a very strange subject, but I'm having spinal surgery in a week and I'm really nervous, so I was wondering....

Would people be kind enough to send good luck messages or words of advice/wisdom? I'm intending on putting them all in a book that I'm going to take in with me next week, and it would really mean a lot to me because you are all such lovely people. :D


The Mac thing in the title is because my surgeon has changed and he is the spitting image of JRT!!! I fell in love. I just hope that there wont be a wasp in theatre while im in there and everyone runs out the room. :shock:

Good Luck and hope you feel better soon. Well done for finding a surgeon who looks like Mac I'm sure he'll look after you and at least you'll have someone to drool at.

Aw, bless! I had surgery many moons ago and I was nervous about it, too.

Look at it this way: you're going to have a lovely little nap and when you wake up you'll be as right as rain and not only will your family be there but Dr. Mac-a-like will be, too. :mrgreen:

Oh, and so will we! - keeping your spot in the forum nice and warm for when you get back! :foru:

As long as the anaesthetist doesn't carry on like Guy (and let's face it, he'd soon be struck off if he did), you'll be fine! :lol:

Wishing you all the best, Kayleigh. :GL:

Lucie : Where did you get that picture...........he looks so god-damn cute!! oooooohhhh! - I just want to hug him and never let go! (might try and hug him on friday actually - one can all but try?!)

I shall think of you next week. If you've got to have surgery you might as well have a Mac lookie likie doing it! They might have a game of regional dialects whilst you're under. Heres to a speedy recovery :GL:

Yes good luck with the surgery Kayleigh...I'm sure we'll all be thinking of you! I've only had a general anaesthetic once and you drift off (they get you to do that counting down from 10 thing) and when they wake you up it feels literally like 2 seconds later, bit strange but it was totally fine.

And you are so lucky to have a Mac-alike as your surgeon...despite all the time I seemed to spend in hospital last university term I never saw any! But I'm friends with lots of med. students now so it's only a matter of time... :wink:

Good luck Kayleigh!

Just think of all the fuss everone will make of you afterwards - you will be able to lie in bed and demand whatever you want (well, within reason!)

:foru:

The only problem with checking this board when i'm at work is that it won't show any pictures that have been posted...which is pants. :?

Lol it's only something a bit silly I did in MS Paint...took me all of about 5 minutes! I'd love to be able to do amazing things with photoshop...
