The surgeon came in to visit this morning at about 8:30, to talk to us about the surgery and sign consents etc. She is really lovely and basically the best in the world... she said we should expect to go down to surgery earlier than we expected at 1200 or 1230...
Then she came back at about 0910 and said Oscar had lost his spot to a more urgent case...
Our little boxer reached his fighting weight though this morning, weighing in on fight day at 5010 g, after match officials had said they had wanted him to reach 5kg for the surgery (though this had fallen into less significance)... so all this time he was just managing his training load!
So Elizabeth said hopefully they could fit him in tomorrow afternoon... or if not then they would consider doing his surgery over the weekend - we do not know how precedented that would be but obviously that would be great too... anyhoo, just relaxing now, much more than we would have been otherwise!!
Introducing, in the blue corner, stepping up for the super duper babies extra fly weight commonwealth gold medal fight for an operation slot, weighing in at at 5010 folks... Oscar "The Oscanator" Noah:
