SETTING:
Location- Naval Station Great Lakes, North Chicago, Illinois, America
Time- Now/Current
Googled: A large variety of 'stab wounds' plus something about hospital stays and surgery times
Also: I asked over at Yahoo and AllExperts.com, but neither have been able to help.
Now, the questions:
1) How long would they be in surgery?
2) How long after surgery would they be unconscious, or at least unable to have visitors?
3) How long would the character have to remain in the hospital after the surgery?
4) What kinds of medication would the character be on after surgery (pills, IV's, ect.)?
5) Would they have to eat certain kinds of food for awhile?
I hope you guys can help me out here. Heck, if you could even give me a website with this information, I'd gladly do the hunting around for myself.
Thanks in advance.
