Sounds like it is going alright. I have been waiting for an update from you. I will be having the same surgery in 6 days, and reading what you have and are going through makes me have some comfort in the last days before.

I am glad things are going well for you. Great job on the weight-loss too! I only hope to be so successful!

You will do great Sue. Fingers crossed that he finishes your surgery laproscopically. I thought for sure I would wake up with a 12 inch incision. You will do great!!!!!

Let me know if you have anymore questions.
