Got a call from a nurse re: Charlie's surgery. No vaccines or aspirin or Ibuprofen for two weeks prior; no eating after midnight; clear liquids until two hours prior. She told me the surgery is scheduled to last FIVE HOURS. Meanwhile, guess what, the angry bulge has appeared for a farewell performance. Charlie's on antibiotics.
