This is incredible!!
When Hubby went for his pre op assessment he was told there was no chance at all of keyhole surgery as there is only one Consultant, at this stage, who can do it so there is an incredibly long waiting list.
Today, when we arrived for his admission the Keyhole Surgery Consultant came to see him! The other Consultant is on holiday in the States and this one is covering his Surgery Lists!!
He said that they will try the keyhole surgery first tomorrow. The only thing which may prevent it is scars from 2 previous ops ( and
maybe bodyweight
). The Senior Registrar sounded very upbeat when she went in this evening. She is assisting tomorrow. If they can do the keyhole procedura the recovery period will be halved!!
He is first on the list tomorrow and I have to phone mid afternoon to hear how he is .
This is just amazing..so we are hoping very much it can go ahead.
Watch this space!
