Today *should* be the day

That my mum gets a new heart valve.

She's due for surgery around lunchtime, if the case before her doesn't overrun too far and push her back to next week.

There is also a 12.5% (1 in 8) chance that she'll die as a direct result of the operation, statistically speaking. I don't especially believe the stats of course, since I don't think life of governed by purely random actions, so that's OK too.

I'll know for certain about the op happening around 1pm-ish.

*edit*

It didn't happen due to there not being a nurse available to watch her after the op was completed. Monday?
