My son had surgery a year ago when he was 2. We had to be at the hospital at 5:30 am and he didn't go into to surgery until 5pm, no food or water since the night before. At one point my wife forgot and lifted him up to get a sip of water from a foutain and I stopped her just as he was getting a sip (around 4 pm). She got scared and told the nurse at which point the nurse said we would have to wait another 2 hours. I told her to F-off we were leaving b/c this is bs having us wait all day. Anyway it sucked.
so you just left? did your son end up getting the surgery?
