I once came out of a major surgery and her description, minus the gauze stapled to her head, is right on the money.
    The reality is that you sort of come to in bed somewhere, and you don’t even realize that you are coming to, or how long you’ve been out. And then you’re wheeled to another room, and another room, and it’s all in a sort of fog, and in my case, there is gauze stapled to your head.
My gauze were on my chest.
