Surgery plans confirmed

Surgery date is May 13th at the Royal Brompton Hospital in Fulham (Reginald Wilson Ward, Syndey Street, SW3 6NP, 020 7351 8567). 

I check in on Wednesday the 12th.

The op will be dynamic in that they don’t know what they will do until they start.  It may stretch to 15 hours.  The Brompton is the only hospital in the UK able to perform some of the procedures that they may need to pursue.  Surgeon has suggested I plan for up to a ten day stay in hospital post op.  This ten days is conservative and we hope it will be less.
