An Update 由手術室回到普通病房後···

Our patient came out of surgical ward at around 1:20 PM. Michael was summoned to greet her around 2:30 PM when she regained her conscience. Her mouth was stuck with a breathing tube. She was awake and all her signs were normal. She was slightly pale and a bit weak. Tears on the corner of her eyes, but she couldn't talk.
手術結束後,下午1:20進入恢復室。2:30左右,當藹玲恢復知覺意識時,永強被允許進入看望。病人嘴裡插著呼吸管。臉色略顯蒼白,人顯得無力,其他則無異常。眼角濕濕的,還無法開口。

She spent another four hours in recovery room and they moved her back to her room when nurses were able to pull the tube off her mouth. No ICU.
在恢復室待了四小時後,傍晚6:30左右,她被送回普通病房。這次不須要進入加護病房。

This time she started to talk and little by little raised her voice every time. First she was barely wispering, then hers was audible but coarse. The level of pain killer administered was too strong and caused her headach. Evidently she was very bothered by the headach instead of the pain inflicted from the surgical wound. She was not herself at all and made a lot of fusses until an anethseastic was sent to drop her drug level to half. She then went to sleep almost immediately when Michael left her around 8:15 PM.
由最初細細聲的嘶嘶嗓音到後來顯得微弱但還算清晰的嘶啞聲,她的聲音漸漸地恢復了過來。恢復室的喧鬧讓她術後無法好好休息,加上止痛藥下得有些過量,我們的病患一時情緒焦躁,時而這樣,時而那樣,教兩個服侍她的人無所適從,要不時地求救於護士小姐。直等到來了位麻醉師,把靜脈注射的止痛藥調到一半,片刻內我們的病患安然入睡。到本人離開醫院時已是晚間八點後的事了。

Dr. Hsieh came to check her out briefly and he seemed to be satisfied with the outcome of today's procedure.
這中間,謝大夫來查視過,看來對手術結果蠻滿意的。

She will start to practice breathing and start to walk inside the room tomorrow. Then maybe venture out further the day after tomorrow whereby she is very much encouraged to exercise her lung by walking and breathing what her strength allows. She looks suprisingly good with the appearance of her trademark rosie cheeks and all other vital signs of hers are fine and normal.
明天起就要練習呼吸,開始下床在房內走動。再往下還要走出病房,到走廊裡散步,她需要不斷地加強呼吸訓練和走動,恢復和加強肺功能。她看來氣色很不錯,兩頰的紅暈又泛開了,其他特徵也都很正常。
