Scoliosis Operation: Day 3 (Friday, 13 May 2011)

Mikaail had a bottle of Brands Essence of Chicken (42 g), half of a half-boiled egg, soya bean drink (15ml) for his first breakfast today, after 2 days of no food, no drink. So far he was able to keep his food and did not throw up and that’s a good sign.

For lunch, he had about 1.5 tablespoon of tofu and 17 ml of Paediasure milk followed by 17.5 ml of paracetemol and about 10 ml of water. Half way through his medication, he said he is full of medication!  Usually he will say which food he is full and which he will continue. 

This is his lunch:

Looks are so deceiving!  The burger is really soggy as the mayo sauce and butter spread on the bread make the bread really yukky!  Then there is the fish fillet on the bread which is just as bad as the bread.  How does the dietician plan the meals?

Considering that he is just out of a major operation, I feel he is managing the operation fantastically well!

He was transferred from ICU to the general ward late this afternoon.
