It seems I have made some minor errors with the pictures last time! As cute as Wall-E is, I suspect he is not a surgeon.
As an aside, I can't believe some people don't know who Wall-E is! I'm sad for you!
Right, enough silly Disney pictures. :)
Here is the actual machine. It's called a Da Vinci. I'm not 100% sure they will use this, but the surgeon did mention it. To be honest, I think it looks ****ing terrifying!
Sort of spidery. And we all know how much I love spiders...
At the last hospital they put you under in a little room, so I never actually saw the surgical theatre. I hope it's the same at the Marsden, although some level of morbid curiosity may make me ask to have a look at the machine! I'll see how stressed I feel on the day.
It also appears I have been mislead on the stockings. I feel there is a marketing opportunity for sexy surgical stockings.
Not sure about the legs, but pretty sure my feet at least look better than these ones!
