Actor and singer, Tyrese Gibson, just went through a three-hour surgery and had his two leading ladies, his daughter and his wife, right by his side the whole time.
The “Fast & Furious” star didn’t name his ailment but posted a picture in the hospital, with his daughter embracing him.
“By my side…My Amazing wife and Daughter has been by my side every step of the way,” Tyrese posted on Instagram. “When it comes down to the real stuff no one is ever there but family.”
“Father God I thank you for your extended grace and mercy 3 hour surgery I made it through,” Gibson continued. “I was in the middle of my procedure during the eclipse, I hope one day I figure out exactly what that meant. I appreciate your prayers and energy, God has a way of sometimes forcing us to slow down…. When I get up? I feel like I’m about to change the world…….. #PrayerWarriors I feel your love…… thank you! #MyLastPost #RecoveryMode.”
Earlier in the week, Tyrese posted a photo and caption that read, “Headed into surgery am I nervous? Yeah I am, I won’t lie…… So I had to spend some time with the little homie Roman……. Prayer warriors as I always pray for you….. Send me your
most sincere prayers….. amen…. just quickly went through my phone and dropped in a few people and things I love…….. enjoy your day….to GOD be the glory for his continued presence and love………….. Father God I see you and I love you!!!”
While prepping for surgery, Tyrese did a quick video and montage of photos that said, “The number 11 is my lucky number so I already feel blessed…,” referring to his operating room number.
Just a couple of years ago, Tyrese was on the other side of the operating table looking at his mother who had to go through a serious surgery that she fully recovered from.
While we do not know as yet, what kind of surgery Tyrese had yet, according to the National Institute of Health, there are some common things that almost all surgery patients have to go through.
After surgery you’ll be moved to the recovery room, where you’ll be told how the operation went. You may feel hazy or groggy as you come round from the anaesthetic.
A nurse will give you oxygen (through tubes or a mask) to help you feel better. It’s common to feel sick or vomit after you’ve been given anaesthesia.
If you had regional anesthesia with conscious sedation, you will need to be monitored carefully in a recovery room until the anesthesia wears off.
It usually takes about 1 to 2 hours for the anesthesia to wear off. You may feel groggy for some time after surgery. After general anesthesia.
If you are an outpatient surgery patient, after your recovery period you will be monitored until…
… your doctor determines that you are ready to go home. At this point, your doctor and nurse will provide you with discharge instructions. Your family member or friend will then be able to take you home.
Intake and Output
After surgery, it’s important for your doctor and nurse to keep track of the amount of fluid that goes into and comes out of your body. Hospital staff refer to what you take in as input and to urine that you pass as output. Any liquid that you drink or that is given to you in the form of IV fluids will be measured. Your urine output also will be measured.
Depending on the type of surgery, you may have a urinary catheter in your bladder that measures the amount of urine your body makes. You also may have drainage tubes in place at incision areas. These help fluid and excess blood drain from under the skin.
A nasogastric tube (NG tube) may be in place with certain types of surgery. This tube is put into the nose and stomach during surgery. It helps drain fluids from your stomach.
Pain and Discomfort
Many patients are most concerned about avoiding pain after surgery. It is normal to have pain in the surgical area. Pain medication is available, and you should take it when you feel you need it.
If you had general anesthesia, your throat may feelsore. This is from the breathing tube that was inserted during surgery.
