Just in case...

We are sitting bedside. The nurse is doing all of her pre-op prep work. Then she leaves for a second and comes in with 3 firemen, a hospital adviser, and the charge nurse. Oh how my heart stopped. My mind went to the worst place possible, until they told me what was going on. 

The hospital was having a evacuation evaluation. Jake happened to be the hardest evacuation in our section of the unit. This was the hospitals way of trying to teach the fire men how they would evacuate a patient like Jake. What tubes and pumps would they need in an emergency, and what they could do with out. Luckily there is no need for that now, and hopefully there won't be a need for that. 

As far as surgery, until they are in here and kicking us out it is always subject to change.
