Rescheduled

I got a call yesterday morning from Indiana University Health/Simon Cancer Center, my hospital in Indianapolis, and my surgery (scheduled for this Thursday) has been postponed. It was not unexpected. Local hospitals are doing the same thing, and Sunday night I had heard that another major Indy hospital, St. Vincent, was canceling all non urgent surgeries starting today.

So, when I got a call at 9:00 yesterday morning from the hospital, I had a pretty good idea what was coming.

I am scheduled now for surgery in the summer, and luckily was able to work around some other plans we have. I'm still working on rescheduling a visit to Sarah's and Jessica's homes, but right now the times I have open and am not in recovery do not work for them. 

I'll be honest, a part of me is very relieved that the surgery has been postponed while another part of me wishes to just get it over and get through it. I'm not excited to have it hanging over me for the next couple of months. But, I am in agreement with what is being done to try and contain the COVID-19.
