Ramblings of a geek with a few hobbies…

  • Sounds from the Operating Room

    In addition to the video camera I took into the operating room for the delivery, I placed a voice recorder in my pocket and recorded the whole thing.  While the audio isn’t great because it was beneath a layer of scrubs and something I’ll just refer to as a cape, it did get some good stuff.

    For your listening pleasure, here are two small clips.

  • More Photos

    Ok, uploading a few more photos.  These are just a few of the couple hundred (no kidding!) and are completely unedited

  • Thank you!

    Well everyone, thank you for your thoughts and prayers – they worked great.  I’ll be posting more photos (and video!) as time permits so be sure to keep checking back.

    Lots of people have asked about the name.  Anthony is my middle name and David is a small tribute to all of the great friends I’ve had in past that bore that name.  Shear, Rasch, Mussulman – that’s you.

  • Boy!

    8lbs, 21.5 inches.

    David Anthony Johnson was born at 2:38pm!

  • 2:10pm

    They just rolled her into the operating room, I’ll be heading in shortly.

  • Time to Roll

    Over 100,000 – time to roll!

  • Platelet Supply

    Ana has successfully drained the hospital of Type A platelets!  This last batch came from the blood bank.

  • Test Results

    Blood test results are back.  She went from 17k to 35k on one bag.  She’s now got two bags in her and they’re starting the third.  So, she’s probably at 50k right now.  They’ll be testing again after this 3rd bag is administered.

    Any surgery won’t be before 2:30.

    Stay tuned.

  • More platelets

    We’re still waiting for the blood test results from bag 1. Bag2 just finished.
