UPDATE: Jean Hobbs

Jean has had the surgery (no details about how many bypasses there were).
She's doing well and is currently in Intensive Care for the initial 24 hour
recovery period, but they are hoping to transfer her back to the normal
coronary care ward later this afternoon.

I'll keep posting news as I get it.

I spent around 48 hours in ICU, and only remember the last 2 or so. In
principle, part of the medication given during anesthesia should cause
loss of memory starting around the start of the premedication. This was
the only time that I didn't remember the sense of passing out.

They were nice enough to give me a last bit of control by letting me get
on the operating table myself. I was in the midst of a chat about one of
the IV pumps -- and then it was a couple of days later.

There were two things for which I was unprepared. Losing the hearing in
one ear wasn't expected. The thing that did surprise me as how little
the chest incision hurt, but how much my leg, where they had taken the
vein graft, was on fire. This might change a little today, as there
tends to be more dissection of a chest artery to use in a graft.

Thanks, Yowie. My LLL had quintuple bypass in 2004 and he's doing just
fine. So you might want to pass that along to Jean along with purrs and
hugs and all that.
