checking in

We are waiting to check in.  I have never seen so many people in the waiting room.  There are 8 kids waiting for surgery.  The most I have seen before is probably 4-5.  It is very crowded.  Some people brought 5 or 6 additional people with them.  I hope it doesn't bump Ellie's surgery later.

One interesting thing...yesterday while I was on hold waiting to talk to the surgery registration people...their recorded message said to bathe the patient the night before for infection control.  I have never been told that before, and they still never told me...I just happened to hear it.  I'm sure it probably won't kill you if you don't, but I guess it is a good idea.

Oh, another person just checked in.
