Atmosphere

And so the morning has arrived. He's now in theatre. Only waited 2 hours, which is pretty good by hospital standards.

He was amazingly keen to go to hospital today. And quite frustrated that the doctors took so long to be ready for him. He couldn't get his central line out fast enough for the anaesthetist. She looked a little stunned by such cooperative behaviour. Cheerfully telling them to clean it first and waving to the surgeon.

The wife was pretty cut up and only just made it out of the anaesthetic room before welling up. I've decided to try to wait for the outcome before getting upset.
