This was good to allow Dianne to find out she could wait during the surgery since the policy was no visitors with the patient. I was able to get an exception. After being submitted to my preparation room, it took about 90 minutes answering questions, signing papers, get dressed for surgery, and getting hydrated and other pre-medication.

As a precaution that the count is to low, I was already scheduled for a Platelet transfusion at the local Hospital.
