The Event That Risked Izzy's Life

The Recovery

Jake's POV

After Izzy was done with her carton of apple juice. I took it off her as I threw it in bin. I passed Izzy her teddy as she cuddled with it as we saw her Surgeon come into the recovery room.

"Good evening." The Surgeon greeted us as I sat down in the chair next to Izzy's hospital bed.

"How did her surgery go?" I asked him.

"Her surgery was very successful. We placed the rod through her knee and we attached her bones back together in her knee. We placed the plates and screws in her leg and they are permanent plates and screws in her leg." The Surgeon exclaimed.

"How long will it take for her leg to heal from her surgery?" I asked him.

"It will take between four and six weeks. She must not take a bath or shower around the scar of her leg. My suggestion if you can give her a sponge bath when she comes home from the hospital." The Surgeon exclaimed.

"We'll figure some way out." I exclaimed as Cubby and Skully nodded.

"We will need to place a new cast on her leg and a bandage on her knee." The Surgeon exclaimed as another doctor came over with a bowl of water and bandages.

The doctor took part of the blanket off her leg, so they can place a new cast on her leg. They started to place a bandage on her knee, where they made the small incision for the rod to go into her leg. They started to place the bandages on Izzy's leg, to form a cast on her leg. The cast was on her leg.

"There you go Izzy, a new cast placed on your leg." The doctor exclaimed before he left.

"How does your leg feel now Izz?" I asked her as she was starting become more aware of what was going on around her.

"It feels okay but how long was I out?" Izzy asked us.

"You were out for nine hours but you woke up twenty minutes." I exclaimed.

"How come I didn't know that I woke up twenty minutes ago?" She asked me.

"The anaesthesia was still in your system and you woke up very tired. You've still got the anaesthesia in your system but it's slowly wearing off." I exclaimed.

"Well I'm sitting up now." Izzy exclaimed as she was sitting up by herself.

"I feel like I was only out for a few minutes not nine hours." Izzy exclaimed.

"Well it's just like going to sleep, when you fall asleep and it suddenly morning all of a sudden but I told you that everything would be okay and you're going to make a full recover on your leg." I exclaimed as I gave her a kiss on her forehead. She smiled.

"Thanks Jake." She exclaimed.

"Did I have something to eat?" She asked us.

"Yes you did. You had a popiscle and a carton of apple juice, after you woke up from your surgery." I exclaimed.

"Did you had to help me with opening the carton of apple juice and the popiscle?" She asked me.

"Yes, I had to help you with taking the wrapper off the straw for your carton of apple juice." I exclaimed.

"So, when am I going home?" She asked me.

"Well, it's next week that you're going home." I exclaimed.

"Wait, so I'm staying in the hospital for a week?" She asked us.

"Yes Izzy, the doctors just want to make sure how your leg is healing after having surgery on it to repair the bones in your leg." I exclaimed.
