We all hate to wait

Our two friends who have been facing surgury this week had it today. We have heard nothing yet on how they are doing. We don't wish to bother the families and so will just hold on to our worry and impatience until they contact us. This is what happens when you have friends you care for. Certianly in importance our impatience is of little weight but it is upsetting. Hope we hear soon.

I would just call the hospital. That way you can see how your friend is doing. It won't disturb the family and your wait will be over. The best of both worlds!

If it is clearly stated that we have to wait, then we have to wait. It is important to ask how much longer we have to ask. No matter where you are whether at a hospital or a police office, we are entitled to ask the person in charge how long we have to wait. We realise that waiting is boring and makes us restless.

What a good friend are you! He'd be very glad seeing your attention for him. After having surgeries the families could be very busy in taking care of them so it is better to visit him at his place and do something there maybe you they need your help there. Your coming will mean a lot for them, believe me cos I feel the same after having surgeries yesterday. Keep on positive thinking, savypat

Waiting can certainly be a type of torture sometimes. How lucky your friends are to have you worrying about them. Well, it's common that surgery will take quite some time to perform. At the same time, their family may forget about letting you know the first moment there is news yeah? By the way, you haven't mention what kind of surgery they are going to do today though. I hope they will be fine if it's some critical surgery.
