Tired in Delhi
Hello all,
Sorry for the delay in posts but we had quite a challenge finding a spot to access the internet.
We arrived in Delhi yesterday morning around 1:30am and went directly to the hospital. Because of the time of day the hospital seemed deserted. We went through the admittance process with our main contact at the hospital, Sanjeev. By the time all was said and done we got to bed around 4am. Jen and Kevin found their way to the hotel without incident (only one cockroach thus far in the room!). LaDawne and I were up at 6am for our tea followed by breakfast at 7:30. We have yet to get more than 4 hours of sleep at one time.
During the day LaDawne was brought to several different rooms in the hospital for pre-op tests. The day ended around 2am! we were up and about around 5:45 this morning. LaDawne's surgery is scheduled for 3pm today. The head Doctor for LaDawne is very thorough and well articulated. His competence inspired confidence in all of us. There was a time early in the morning when I was chatting with LaDawne where I broke down expressing my severe angst, thinking we have come half way around the world just to get some test done to tell us something we already knew. So this talk with the Doctor was great for me.
I will add more today or tomorrow after LaDawne's surgery to let you all know how things went.
Jen and Kevin will add another post here with some trip details as well as some cultural experiences with pictures.
Thank you all for your love, we love you too.
Mike

I really hope you will get more rest tonight, you must be so tired, both of you. The procedure will be done by now, and we are so hoping all went well, even better than expected! We continue to pray. I tried calling your cell but it just rings busy, and the operator comes on saying "try again later", so I'll keep trying. Love, mom.
ReplyDeleteOur thoughts and prayers are with you! We trust God that everything went well today! Thanks for sharing your journey via blog. It's been great to read about your experience. Love and Prayers, The Thiessens :-)
