Aether, in the infirmary doing an interview: "People ask why we have a medical wing here at the abbey, and it's partly because we're so remote, but also because it helps to have a place to take sick and/or injured individuals to recover where they can be safely monitored and assessed properly before we determine if further intervention is needed." Omega, sitting down: "There's a lot of stuff we can't do in house, like MRI's, organ transplants... Basically anything that would require more invasive treatments or examinations, except for, say, a broken bone, that we can handle." Aether, nodding: "For the most part, we're just here to answer questions people might have in regards to their health, and to make sure all of our residents are up to date on their shots." Omega: "Speaking of which..." -getting up and grabbing a broom handle to prod a hissing Dew latched onto the ceiling- "Get your ass down here and let me give you your booster shots, you feral possum of a man-" Aether, poking at him with a yard stick: "You have to kind of push at his hands or his claws won't retract-"

ok detailed surgery experience
Tumblr media
i made this schedule (?) of the major events as soon as I left while I cld still remember (and still kinda forgot!) i like knowing the Times of stuff so I asked my dad to take note of Times for me, and tried to ask for the time where i could
surgery I got was a laproscopic bilateral salpingectomy, full removal of the fallopian tubes only!
Tumblr media
Misc details off of dis, obviously TMI territory as its a medical procedure.
The second blood draw (they took blood from me yesterday tooooo) hurt less and more somehow. Nasty nasty bruise forming.
IV really was the worst part of it ! I'd get weird throbs of frustrating pain long after it was in
I was given compression stockings that went right up to my crotch. Your toes stick out, and they put hospital socks over your feet. Some additional compress wraps were placed above my knees.
Pre op/prep didnt take too long at all. I know I have it listed as over an hour of waiting, which always made me nervous to read in other people's experiences, but it doesn't really feel like waiting. The TV helps pass the time, as do the people who are with you if any, and the nurses popping in with help or instructions or updates. The prep room was small and the bathroom was next door. The double doors open to wheel you out. Remote was given toe to control the TV and also call the nurses via a speaker.
The nurse who wheeled me in was nicest, she pronounced my name Correctly and was also really funny and friendly...
In general I knew this surgery was going to go well because I was actually able to fall asleep last night. I've stayed awake/tossed and turned for events far less stressful. Dis was also due to part of it kind of not feeling real for me! And being wheeled into surgery room added to that! It didnt feel real, it felt like watching one of many scenes from medical media of the same point of view.
I did start quaking and shaking once in the surgery room (also small, I did not look around much in fear of it making me panic last minute!)
They had me scoot from the prep bed to the surgery table. There was a pink foam headrest for me to slot the back of my head into. They strap you in with arms out like ur being crucified and thats when it became more Real for me so i started shaking a lot, but I can't tell how bad it was under the heavy blankets. I think I shook more and for longer when I went for my MRI (which also isnt/wasnt scary but the body freaks out for no reason). Im surprised at myself for being so Calm ykwim
Anyway, strapped in, had monitoring stuff stickered onto my body: my sternum, side of body under chest/armpits, and another pair I cant remember where. Hair was put up in hair net. My hospital gown was untied as the tie starts halfway across your body and goes under, but this was not done in an invasive-to-privacy way, and I was still fully covered by it (and then recovered by blankets)
(3 separate people asked me how many kids I had throughout this whole venture, and were Shocked at my response. This was the other most nerve wracking part as I started to get weirdly anxious that someone wouldn't like this and cancel my surgery or something. One of the Askers was the anesthesiologist.) Doctor/surgeon came in and asked if i was ready and talked about how he loved being under anesthesia LOL. Everybody was speaking about their opinions about childbirth and sterilization and parenthood, but amongst each other and not to influence my decision, along with telling each other to set up XYZ. Once again everybody is charmed by Cheye's usage of the word "yay"
Ive never had surgery before, so I was worried about anesthesia. In my mind i was imagining it to be being fully lucid and then your vision darkens and takes you, which was scary to me like i dont wanna be freaking out and then immediately KNOCKED out!
But it was gradual which actually made it more calming for me...the funny nurse put the oxygen mask over me, I got very nervous bc she said to take deep breaths and honestly i couldnt even breath much at all in it, and breathing out also felt very restricting and like I was going to choke, but it wasn't Distressing. I just breathed slowly and it worked anyway.
In a few seconds I felt a cool tingle in my arm that then sort of burst into my torso, and my whole body felt really light and my eyelids draggggggged half closed, but it felt very mechanical and involuntarily (like slowly closing window blinds...or like how the brightness options on a 3DS are numbered buttons ykwim? Like, Closing 1, Closing 2, Closing 3, Closed Halfway, all pressed in quick succession). Heavy heavy heavy. I stayed in that half closed state for a while! (Probably not even a full minute, but it also wasn't instant...i still had time to think and Hear conversation etc, as well as feel that there was some mechanical thing tightening around my spread arms along with the hand adjusted straps)
The funny nurse was telling me to relax and have sweet dreams and that they wld take care of me and such. And then I was out. I do not remember my vision fully fading or eyes fully closing, in my mind they stayed in that half closed state.
Ive heard ppl say it feels like blinking and waking up, but it did feel like sleep to me!!!! I know dreaming under anesthesia isn't really a thing, but waking up felt like....i was really waking up like normal and trying to remember traces of a dream after several hours of sleep.
I always thought it was silly seeing ppl ask if the surgery was over when they come out of it, but I did that. But like i swear it came out involuntarily??? Like i knew it was over....i think it was because I couldnt really SEE anything when i woke up, I could only hear staff speaking to me, and I can barely remember what they said. Vision was VERY very blurred. So I guess that question came out as substitute for Where Am I, and Who's Here With Me? Speaking felt like when audio unsyncs from a video, with my voice trailing far behind my words. I also remember being really bewildered bc there was some sort of residue on my lips, like when they're chapped and dry and cracking. I learned later this was bc of the intubation but i Didnt Know That Yet so i was just scared and thirsty.
Adding another "pain was less bad than the average period which has one Doubled Over" statement to the pile. Pain was at 3/10 or 4/10, which is to say if period pain is a whole abdomen event, this pain was small little bruises occasionally being brushed up against, just small throbs of sore pain in the 3 incision spots. I got an incision inside my belly button and that was the most present sensation, but that might also be bc I hate anything having to do with that area in general 😭 always feels weird.
My throat felt very DRY. It wasn't pain yet, it felt like when you're thirsty + dehydrated and your lips stick together at any slight moisture, but in the throat. Kept trying to look around and wiggle my fingers and toes in hopes that'd help me Come Out Of It sooner bc not being able to see was really frustrating me. I could not make out the face of the person watching over me for some time. I really wanted water !
HORROR when the person looking over me said i had a catheter still in me. Nightmare I wasnt counting on actually happening and wasnt mentally prepared for. I was told I would have one placed (make sure to ask if this is a concern for you!) but i thought they'd take it out before I woke up... I cldnt even feel it in me when I was told this! Which is good.
The staff of course had to remove blankets and open my gown a bit to access the area. But I did not feel any distress about this at the time.
Had a very funny slow motion distress response bracing self for removal. It did not hurt or sting at all, it just felt like [something I cant describe here]. Just pressure! It was pulled out gently but quickly of course.
After 1 hr i was wheeled to a separate private recovery room. The nurse uncovered my lower area to check if incisions were doing good so far as well as to check if I had been provided with a pad/underwear, as some patients have blood or other fluids come out as a result of the surgery.
parents came in, was so grateful for juice but in dismay over my food item being orange (i dont like citrus flavor) jello (i dont like jello 😭) i consumed all of both.
I also worried I'd feel weird about throwing my body parts away. But I dont feel anything ^_^ just feels very awesome and natural
Sore throat started further developing. Nurse came in after some time here, taught me how to Get Up. Was scary! I was worried about it hurting, but it was just more soreness.
Was able to go to the bathroom, went a very little bit but it was enough. I was very scared about seeing my incisions and being disgusted by them....but I caught a glance and it was Okey Yey. They are covered in surgical Glue and dont look gnarly, swollen, red or anything they look very cool ^_^ got dressed in stages as there was nothing to set clothes down on and sat back down on the bed. The bathroom connected to another room where somebody else was preparing for surgery.
Nurse came in with final post op instructions, upon describing nausea to me my skin got cold, stomach activated and krusty krab exploded with it. She was just barely able to get me a bag to throw up in. This exacerbated the throat pain. She encouraged me to get it all out especially since I also expelled gas, which is a good thing.
IV removal didnt hurt! Same level of pain as the tape around it being yanked off. I couldn't even tell it was over. I was wheeled out of the hospital. ^_^ i wore an oversized dress my sister lent me, and cheap target sandals so I wouldnt have to bend to tie shoes. My dad pulled up the car right outside. I brought a pillow to be a barrier in between the seat belt and my stomach.
Its 6:48 neow and I am laying down, but the pain is (currently) the same. I had another nausea (and release. Also exacerbated throat pain.) spell (while in walmart picking up the pain meds), was boiling alive in my very hot room, and was a bit dehydrated which may have contributed to some misery and nausea but as of right now I'm ok, i changed into lighter clothes, drank water, ate a bit, and situated self in a room with ac....i worry about getting up and becoming nauseous again 😭 i hate throwing up.
People are right about it being more discomfort than pain! You have to walk around every few hours, and it doesnt hurt but every step feels like my bellybutton is kinda pinching inward. Being tugged at from the inside. Ive gotten to a point where even chuckling makes me feel this very Sour soreness (not regular dull soreness) so maybe ill start the meds soon if necessary.... Squatting to sit doesnt hurt in a debilitating way, neither does actually sitting or putting on/stepping into clothing.
I couldnt nap because laying on my side doesnt hurt the incisions or anything, BUT its just the strange discomfort again. The weight of gravity on the body makes the incision sites feel very very weird in an abstract way i cant describe. It isnt pain. It feels like a mismatched sensation of some sort. Like if you touched your nose and somehow felt the touch on your knee. Adjacent to this. A very specific sensation sits in all the incision sites and drags down through your mattress to the ground and it feels Weird.
If you get up properly it really doesn't hurt to do so! Use your leg to get yourself fully onto your side, then use your arm to push yourself up into a sitting position.
I am very nervous from when all the good strong hospital meds wear off t_t i heard the day after is a struggle because of dis. but ive got the prescribed pain management on hand (extra strength ibuprofen and tylenol with codeine!! O_O) neow at least ^_^;
OH, AND THE DOCTOR TOOK FOTOS OF MY INSIDES LIKE I ASKED! ^_^ 🫶 I have glossy printed souvenir now! I dont exactly know wtf im looking at but its awesum LOL maybe i will ask for details at the follow up!

Navigating the Digital Revolution in Healthcare: A Strategic Guide for Healthcare Leaders
Healthcare is witnessing an unprecedented pace of change. There are several forces at play, creating a shift in how we approach health and wellness.
First, is demographics. There is a growing gap between lifespan and healthspan. People aren’t just getting older—they’re facing different types of health challenges too. Chronic diseases and morbidities are showing up earlier in life and there is a growing focus on wellness. To cater to this changing demographics, healthcare needs to be more personalized and proactive, moving beyond just reacting to illness.
On the bright side, we’re getting better at understanding the human body and finding new ways to treat it. Healthcare technologies are evolving rapidly and care delivery is becoming more connected and collaborative thanks to digital transformation efforts and technologies like Generative AI. Game-changing innovations like CAR-T cell therapy, radioligand treatments, and advanced diagnostics (e.g., 11.7 Tesla MRI machines) are transforming how we treat and manage diseases. At the same time, device miniaturization and advancements in healthcare informatics are enabling self-management of conditions, creating new possibilities for remote patient care and monitoring.
And most importantly, given the rising cost of care, healthcare payments are now tied to value-based, outcome-oriented care rather than transactions. Payers are also stepping in to play a bigger role in managing care. This is pushing organizations to find new ways to cut costs while improving care delivery and create new outcome-based payment models.
Together, these forces are reshaping healthcare in extraordinary ways. So, in the light of these changes, what does the future look like?
The future of healthcare delivery: self-managed, connected, and boundaryless
In the light of the changes in disease mix, focus on wellness rather than treatment, and tech advancements, healthcare delivery is set to evolve in a few key ways:
Digital tiers of care: The traditional model of primary, secondary, and tertiary care is expanding to include a new “digital” tier. Digital interventions will drive connectivity, enabling remote consultations, virtual care, and better patient monitoring—making healthcare more flexible and boundaryless.
Patient-centric models: Patients, especially those with chronic conditions, will play a more active role in managing their health. This shift towards patient empowerment will reduce the reliance on hospital settings and promote continuous, proactive care.
Evolving payment models: We’ll see the right payment models emerging that emphasize value over episodic transactions and reward preventive care. These future payment frameworks will holistically focus on wellness, behavioral health, and care management rather than just individual treatments.
Coordinated patient journeys: Joining the dots in fragmented patient journeys, future care models will focus on coordination across providers, payers, and care settings. With better data sharing, patients will experience smoother, more efficient care, leading to better outcomes.
Immediate priorities for healthcare organizations
While these evolving futuristic models have a lot of potential, but to get there, healthcare organizations need to navigate some existing on ground realities—starting with finding the money for transformation, innovating at “digital native” speeds, and finding new, sustainable business models.
1. Driving down healthcare costs
We all know that healthcare costs across the system – be it care, research, or administration – are extremely high. For example, 1/7th of the total healthcare spending in the US is on administrative tasks! Every healthcare leader is asking, “How can we become a more cost-effective and efficient organization?”
The answer lies leveraging AI to reimage, optimize, and automate existing processes and operations. For example, one of the ways an AI driven predictive analytics solution can save costs is by identifying high-risk patients, suggesting and implementing targeted interventions, and reducing hospital readmissions.
 2. Embracing agility with digital transformation
To provide the best possible care and patient experience, the healthcare ecosystem needs to adopt digital technologies at scale and become more agile and collaborative. However, just implementing the latest tech is not enough. Take AI for example. We’ve seen that despite POC successes, putting AI into production at scale, ensuring it is ethically sound, accurate, and essentially flawless continues to be a challenge.
The goal for digital transformation should be to achieve true agility—not just in software development, but in how the entire organization operates. This means looking at how doctors, clinicians, payers, and patients interact, improving the speed of care delivery, and ensuring everyone is working together more effectively.
That is only possible when organizations think carefully about their strategy, prioritize use cases that can improve operations and care delivery, and seamlessly weave technology into everyday workflows.
3. Exploring new, sustainable business models
One of the biggest opportunities in digital healthcare is taking the “tribal knowledge” — the valuable insights that come from years of experience — and turning it into AI models that can be monetized. Instead of that knowledge staying locked in the minds of a few experts, it becomes something repeatable and scalable, leading to more personalized and effective care for patients.
Keeping pace with industry shifts: Strategies for healthcare leaders
If we think of an organization like a person, it has a head and a heart—intelligence and feelings. To move the needle on transformation, healthcare leaders need to balance strategy, tactics, and empathy. Successful leaders will:
Look at transformation from a dual lens: Make current operations more efficient while also creating space for new ways of working. Challenge the status quo and prepare for the transition to newer models.
Think big, start small, scale wisely: Large-scale transformations can be overwhelming. It’s important to have a big-picture vision, but the key is to start small. Experiment, test things out, and then gradually expand on what works. By proving the value of digital solutions early, you can reduce risks and build confidence as you move forward.
Embrace multimodal transformation and commit to change: Transformation isn’t just about processes—it’s about people, customers, and change orchestration. Successful change requires buy-in at all levels, from top leadership to employees on the ground. Ensure that employees can adapt to new processes and technologies as they evolve.
Find the right partner: To navigate these shifts, it’s important to find a partner who truly understands the healthcare industry and values continuous learning and innovation. For example, at CitiusTech, we work across the entire healthcare ecosystem—payers, providers, life sciences, and medtech. This gives us a unique perspective, helping our clients connect the dots and turn their big ideas into reality.
Ultimately, success in the new paradigm of healthcare will be about rethinking how healthcare services are delivered, whether through new business models or innovative  tech that can bring real benefits to patients and providers alike.
