A Tale of 2 Theatres

Friday was a routine day in theatre for Andrew and his team. They had a few 4th degree tears to repair and then had a hysterectomy planned. After his first 2 cases in theatre, Dr Winnie informed him of a lady who was in labour that had now got obstructed.
So we ended up going to theatre for a Caesearean Section with this lady. I was interested to watch the end of the hysterectomy once I knew our baby was safely out.

So we had the safe arrival of the sweetest little boy in our theatre. I then went over to Andrew’s theatre to find them in then midst of removing a few fibroids. Fortunately, they did not have to do a hysterectomy. The first one was about fist size and 2 smaller ones. Great for me to watch some surgery that was not obstetrics.

But I had to admit we had a much cuter specimen at the end of our procedure, this precious little boy compared with the fibroid s that Andrew and Team had!
