Guest guest Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 My sister is finally having her surgery on Monday 10-2. This has been an almost three year wait but is finally here, yeah!!! She was the one who had the panniculectomy first and Dr K removed 45lbs. It took her five months to heal from this as about nine inches of her incision opened and when he took her back to surgery and re-stiched it, the stitches pulled through her skin again so it had to heal from the inside out with the help of a wound vac. This really scared her and she has been putting off the DS surgery. In the mean time I had my DS and have lost approx. 130lbs and reached goal so this got her thinking about it again. Anyway on Monday she can start a new life (as I did) Thanks for listening and all the support. If anyone happens to be in the Delano area next week her name is Lorinda Ballantyne. I will be there as her support person part of the time and my daughter will be there the rest of the time. Terri in Paso Quote
