UNBELIEVABLE!! Talk about being 'tested' . It sounds like you've handled everything remarkably well, considering. wow. I'd be knockin on my pychiatrist's door asking for the old-school anti-anxiety pills!
Good for you to remain calm at such a moment as this.
I'm glad the dingbat had the sense to stop to see if you were ok.

Sounds like you and your Dr have a good plan. Now we sit and wait and pray for a successful outcome and to keep you as comfortable as possible. He better NOT skimp on the pain control! You've been thru enuf as it is. Absolutely keep at him and reminding him what the main mission is -- to keep you as painFREE as possible. Anything less than that will warrant your group of buttbuzz buddies to unite and use the best of our intimidation tactics on the whole lot of 'em!!
We will show NO mercy!

Truly I say - you are on the top of my prayer list my dear friend...
