I got a cold, so my surgery has been cancelled. I just called and spoke to the surgeon on call and I can not be put to sleep with a cough. BOOhooo I will call Monday morning and reschedule my surgery for a later date!!!

Hello Donna, I am so sorry that a cold is setting your surgery date back! But, the Drs know best when they cancel surgery. The reason why they won't put you to sleep with a cough is cause the cough comes from the lungs. The lungs are a very important role in the surgery. I was on a ventilator while in surgery and my lungs were so sore after I woke up, and was for a few weeks. Also it's so easy to get pneumoinia laying in the bed, and you surely don't want that. We want you to have a uneventful surgery & a speedy recovery. Let me know when your new surgery date is! Love ya, ~Jo~ 444/414/372/210?

Donna, Sorry to hear of your surgery cancellation, I know you have been waiting patiently just like the rest of us and its a big time bummer when something like this happens, but you gotta keep your chin up! They have a good reason to cancel, cause lungs aint nuffin to play with. Your date will be scheduled soon I hope. God Bless, Angie Bea
