Default Never fear, I'm here!

Got home last night. Open Roux-en-Y. No problems, no dumping, came home with one drain dangling off my left abdomen. I am currently luxuriating in a Vanila Glucose Control Boost! Then I am going back to bed- BECAUSE THE HEATING SYSTEM WENT KERFLOOEY JUST THIS MORNING AND IT IS 22 OUTSIDE WITH A WINDCHILL OF 0!!!! My honey had a funeral this am- he and the furnace man will both be here shortly- I can't go down the cellar stairs yet, so the man of the house needs to be here. I'll check back in when the heat comes back. Thanks for the good thoughts, one and all!

Revised mantra for CeeCee: sip, walk, burrow, rest, repeat!

Congrats on a smooth operation and prayers for a continued smooth journey to Loserland!

Welcome back! & congratulations on a successful surgery!

BTW, what is it with all this coldness? I'm freezing my aching ankles & knee joints down here! Brrr! I tried turning the heater on and the apartment started smelling like smoke/fire! Damn 50 degree weather! lol

Welcome home Cee Cee and welcome to the losing side! I'm glad to hear all went well. Too bad about the furnace not working. I hope the man of the house can get it fixed soon. Until then wrap up in them blankets, keep sipping, walking and getting your rest. The ride has begun, hang on tight!
