"lazy" sunday

Oh boy! Not really a lazy sunday at all. Honestly I was very nervous about the doctors visit today, because - as mention earlier - I could still remember his painfull visit last week.
So, I woke up at 6 am being restless and not quite a happy campger. But luckily the constant stream of visitors started already at 9 am with my mum and her neighbour. She - having been in hospital herself for the past 3 days :-( - was very happy to see me again and cheered me up.
We had a little panic (me) situation right after lunch time, b/c the machine that was attached to my food and sucked out the air and the "ichor" (looked that term up = liquid that comes out of my wound) stopped working. Well I paniced - not really, but in my world I did - and I assume I broke a little bit rapport with my nurses. Because they had not really a clue how to fix it and where to busy to call someone. I do understand, and I DONT! For god sake its MY foot and I was in uncertainty! Long story short, I found out "my" Doctors private number and called him on his cell. On a sunday, while he was having lunch with his family and his little supersweet 13 month old daughter. He was very nice and told me to tell the nurses what to do and that he will show up soon. The nursed did as I told them (remember I am the BOSS :-)) and Dr. Friendly showed up pretty quick.
He opened the bandage - YES I got a heavy dose of painkillers and the pain was not even half of what it was last time.
He was very happy with his work. I liked how my foot looked and I can imagine how it will look soon. He promised me that I can wear highheels soon again :-)!
At this point, I really want to thank this brilliant surgeon for his amazing work and his dedication for his profession (passion). Other doctors would hand the work over to someone else, when they are off duty. But he came into the hospital to check on me in his private sunday time off. And he promised me to come and look after my foot even next week, when he is actually out of town to study for his MBA (yes he must be very smart as well). So, Dr. Kamolz if you read that, just know how deeply I thank you for your brilliant work and your caring!
It still looks like I can leave hospital by the end of the week.
My mum cant wait to have me home and to nurture me.
I will see many of you hopefully in San Diego soon!
God bless!
Love and laughter to you all!
