I spent most of the day at the hospital today with my wife. Her blood pressure has gone down and she was allowed to wash her hair today for the first time in 3 days. She felt a lot better. We had the opportunity to see a 3D ultrasound (let’s you see the baby inside the uterus. We also had a pre-operation briefing by my wife’s doctor. The C Section is scheduled for tomorrow morning at around noon. My wife will be given some mild sedatives around 10:00am to calm her nerves and then around 12:00 she will get an epidural. She will be awake during the operation, but will be numb from the chest down. She chose this method as she wants to be able to see our baby when she is born. Her spirits are up and I was happy about that. So, things are looking up. Hopefully by this time tomorrow I will be a father of a beautiful little angel.
Via con Dios, Peter. My prayers and best wishes for you and your wife.
