Rubin called me at 1:00 this morning to tell me that his surgery would be at 10 this morning. Glad he called b/c I wasn't planning on getting here until 10 or 11! Of course, they didn't come get him from his room until about 10:30, and then we were down in the prep area for another hour. They took him back to the OR around 11:35 and the dr said it will probably take about an hour and a half. He is extremely nervous about waking up in severe pain like he did last time, but after talking to the nurses and anesthesiologist (he was wonderful!), I think he is feeling a little better about everything. So far the experience here at CDH has been much better than Rush Copley and I am very confident in the surgeon - he seems like a great guy who really knows what he is doing, and he is very nice and takes the time to explain everything and answer all questions. Will update when he is done and I get the report from the surgeon.
