Left Eye

My mom had cataract surgery on her left eye this week. This is Baby Boy demonstrating a 'left eye'.

She is doing very well now. But, the surgery took a bit longer than expected (still, only about 15 minutes) so they had to sedate her a little more towards the end of the surgery.

Then, she had trouble waking up. It took about five minutes more than expected. Her oxygen levels and her blood pressure dropped considerably. I thought it was extremely scary.

Then, she just woke up. After about a minute she looked at me and said, "Oh. THERE you are!".

Wide awake. Ate a muffin. Drank a cup of coffee. Thrity minutes later we were in the car on the way home. She was fine.

I, on the other hand, am still somewhat nerve wracked.
