Re: Surgery went fine (I hope)

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

It sounds like things went really well for you. I understand that about

using the morphine button liberally, because my wife said that I did the

very same thing and it kind of not puts you in the real world, but you

definitely do what you have to do.

Surgery went fine (I hope)

Sending this from my hospital via my cell phone...

I was in recovery by 10am but due to room issues, I didn't get to my room

til 6pm. I had a signicant amount of pain in my back at first but very

little discomfort now. I am using the morphine liberally to keep ahead of

it. Besides, it makes the dry mouth more bearable. The dry mouth sucks!

I talked to my best friend from high school last night. We just recently got

in contact after 12 years. She had gbp 10 years ago. She lost 240 pounds but

is still aT 220. She feels great about that but thinks she could have been

more successful if more information and support had been available back

then. We are both looking forward to our 20th reunion next summer.

Talking to her made me realize just how amazing you guys are. I have enjoyed

your postings over the last 5 months and knew exactly what to expect and

what to buy to help prepare for this journey. Most importantly, you guys

helped me prepare mentally for this journey to a new life. I was only very

slightly nervous and it's because of you all.

Hopefully the next few days will go as smoothly as today (but I'm not

counting on it.) and I'll be seeing results in no time.

Thanks again!

Glad to hear all went well, . Sounds very encouraging. You're

" paying it forward " by telling those of us who haven't had surgery yet

what to expect. You're right - what a GREAT resource this is!
