I'm once again in the waiting room while Mom gets a bronchoscopy. I saw Dr. Park in pre-surgery, and he said that I shouldn't leave the building because this will be quick (that really means that the procedure itself will be quick but NOT that Mom will be out of recovery quickly - that always takes a bit of time). I will have a meeting with him when the surgery is finished and he'll update me on everything.
She's doing okay - spent the day with Clancy & Jennifer, and I got here around 4pm. She had a procedure earlier today that inserted some contraption into her veins and will hopefully prevent future blood clots. She's still using the heavy duty oxygen mask, and is pretty weak. But you'd be weak too if you hadn't eaten a scrap in more than 24 hours (no eating before bronchoscopies...them's the berries).
She was pretty tired before surgery - slept a bit while I watched, so that was good. Our Grandpa's here and o'course Jennifer and Oona. It's good to all be together. More updates soon.
