After a two-hour delay, which included multiple pre-briefings with elements of the surgical team, Daniela was escorted into the operating room. The surgeons began to labor at 13:55 hrs. Before her scheduled dance with the anesthesia, she told me she was bored. She made funny faces. Here is my favorite funny face from earlier today.
While I blog, the surgical team boogies. During the pre-op pre-briefings, I overheard the residents talking about the anticipated soundtrack. So, I asked a nurse to document the tracks. Dr. Cocilovo came by the waiting area to let me know that her part of the procedure went well. She also handed me part of the playlist. The first four tracks are by Róisín Murphy, an Irish voice calibrated to pop-jazz-electronica. The title of the first song speaks volumes about the surgical team's sense of duty. Tracks 1,2,3,4 are...Sow into You, Ruby Blue, Checkin' on me, Overpowered. Track five shifted to a different artist...the group Red Hot Chili Peppers...and their track My Friends.
It is a few minutes past 15:00 hrs. They should be done soon. If you are in the mood for a surgical melody...click on the video: Róisín Murphy's Sow into You. Those plastic surgeons are so hip.
