"Steady as a rock." She responded with a raised hand, deliberately shaking.
Timid laughs erupted all around.
But Bette always made sure to re-establish a more serious tone.
"Any questions since we talked, anything you want to go over again?" She enquired, sympathetically squeezing the hand she had placed on Mr Johnson’s arm.
Her question was met with a silent head shake.
"Ok then, looks like we are all set," she continued getting into the details of what the patient’s day was going to be like, laying it out like the perfect plan it actually was.
"You’ll meet the anesthesia person any minute. You’ll be happy to hear you’ll be sound asleep for the operation;" she informed before pointing to Mr Johnson lower belly, "I’ll be making the incision right here but I’ll numb it up with local before I’m done so when you wake up there should be little or no pain."
Before giving Mr Johnson time to think the recovery would be pain free, she added, "It does wear off, though, after a few hours, so we’ll hook you up to a little push-button device so you can give yourself pain medicine whenever you want it." Bette finished explaining, mimicking the clicking of the device with her thumb.
This seemed to overjoy her patient to no end.
"I expect you’ll be up walking in the halls tonight." she concluded.
"Tonight?! Really??" Mr Johnson exclaimed.
"Yep! It’s the best thing there is for you. Gets the circulation going, gets those lungs working. Best medicine if you ask me!" Bette explained before turning to face the family who were going to be doing the interminable waiting and inevitable fretting.
"OK, I figure the operation will be give or take an hour, a few fiddly bits before and after but I’ll come out and talk to you as soon as we’re done probably an hour and a half. Don’t get worried if it’s a little longer."
She exited the room to a few quiet thank yous making sure to turn around as she passed the threshold to direct a few last words to her patient.
"See you in the OR."
