Yes, I feel I'm over the hump now. I reckon I'll be getting most of these tubes out tomorrow!
Nurse Hump, huh. Would that be sponge bath nurse Hump?

I've finally got all my tubes on the same side of me so I can stand up. I think tomorrow I'll get a lot of these taken out. They're getting a low reading for my oxygen saturation which is concerning them, but I don't think anything is wrong. I have to be on an oxygen pump until I get an x ray.

That low O2 saturation happens to me every time I come out of anesthesia. For only a couple of hours, though.
It's the only time in my life that I actually feel somewhat depressed, as well. I always feel hopeless after surgeries when I'm in the PACU.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Start blowing that ball up the tube.

If I thought I was in a fish I'd be depressed too.

This one nurse is really pissing me off, she's so rude. She talks like I'm a naughty boy who isn't trying hard enough to breathe. It's a shame because all the others are lovely. I don't need the stress bitch, I'm trying to recover. Anyhow, I feel really good despite what any silly test says. I'm sure the chest X-ray will clear me. I think the tightness from the operation is restricting my breathing somewhat. And I have all these tubes pulling me. And you're being a bitch. I'm still achieving my baseline, so what more do you want you stupid cow?

Hehe
She is actually only the second worse nurse I've ever had. The first wasn't just rude but outright despicable. That was some time ago.
Anyhow, I feel I'm ready to kick ass.
