Along the OR Corridors & By the Balcony
Yesterday felt like it was the longest day of my life. Dad was wheeled to the OR around 9 am and the waiting time made me nervous, anxious, and restless. It was almost unbearable. I sat on one of the chairs for a while then when I got up and was pacing in the middle of the corridor, the thought of taking a souvenir of me being there through a photo came to mind, hence this shot.
Taking a closer look, I noticed the nice shadows of the chairs which got me busy for some seconds capturing them.
The shadow of the wheelchair didn't come out as sharp as I thought. Even the angle at which it was taken was off but I'm including it anyway, lol! I didn't even realize the pic included the faint shadows of the handrails until I uploaded this.😅
Anyway, after spending over an hour pacing back and forth along the cold corridors of the OR complex, I decided to go away for a while and get some sunshine on the balcony near the nurses' station.
The country's flag was waving high on the pole outside. Aah, the sky was bright and the air warm. I liked it there.
While I stood by the door, the shadows of the railings and plants caught my eye, hence these photos.

They look nice it felt like I needed more photographs so here they are.

A few minutes later, I returned to the corridors. After half an hour, I remembered to check Dad's room. Our stuff (my laptop among other things) was unattended but I was glad they were untouched. The place is safe :)
I could not count how many times I was back and forth between the OR corridors, the balcony, and our room during the day (9 am to 4 pm) but I'm so grateful Dad pulled through.

I hope your Dad gets well soon.
I love how you took the opportunity of time wasting to get some awesome shadows friend.
Great shadows indeed!!
Thank you. It was nice to have some things to divert my attention and not worry too much.
I understand it's natural to fret especially when a dear one is in such condition, but I want you to maintain a positive mindset. Believe it's going to be alright. If you're christian you can find solace in God. I wish your dad the best and pray he recovers soon enough. Sorrow may endure through the night but joy comes in the morning. All the best to you and your family.
I think you did a nice job capturing the images especially the one of the chairs in the corridor. Thanks for sharing them.
Thank you for reminding me to stay positive. I admit to being worried, I suppose it's a natural reaction :) My Dad is okay now. While further procedures are needed, we are thankful the first one was successful.
I appreciate you, truly. Thank you.
I can relate to your situation as I also experienced a similar situation. Nobody wants to face such a situation but our life brings that in front of us and we have no way to escape it.
Shadow photographs is good and I can remember that I also captured almost the exact photograph of chair as you captured.

I've been around hospitals more times I can remember as a health care provider, accompanying relative, and a patient. It's two weeks after my surgery and it still smarts every time I cough or sneeze. I hope your Dad fully recovers. 🙏
Thank you and I also wish you complete healing and recovery from your surgery. ❤️
Amazing shadow 😀
Gracias !LADY ❤️

He is a strong man and will be on his feet sooner hehe. Thank you :)
Aww I hope Dad is back fighting fit soon CJ!
I feel your pain waiting though. But you got a chance for some cracking shadows pictures and a post on Hive, so that's the silver lining!
Of course I love the flowers in a vase shots 💙
He will, Tito Ed. He even joked about having a big party when he gets home, hehe. The shadows and other things did cheer me up during the wait :) Thank you.
Oh good, am glad he still has a sense of humour CJ :)
Waiting could be stressful, lalo na Pg ganyan hinihintay mo. Buti na Lang nabaling mo SA IBA atensyon mo sis.
True yan sis. Second time nya maoperahan pero don lang ako sobrang worried.
Sending a positive from negative feeling, Dad will be home soon, healthy and happy with his daughter tending to him.

Hello sis!!! The hours of waiting at the hospital are nerve wracking but I'm glad your dad made it through the surgery. I will keep him in my prayers for a speedy recovery. Hugs!
It was. Thankfully, he is doing better now and hopefully recover soon before the next procedures. Many thanks, amiga ❤️
I'm so happy your father pulled through, your stay in the hospital was Worth it.
Yes, thank you :) It was one of those times when the nerves just can't calm down no matter how much we try.
You must have been through a lot in those few hours of waiting but thank God your Dad pulled through.
