Talking

Tashia, your surgery will be fine. Dr. Callery is the BEST! You are in very good hands. I just got home from the hospital. I am so happy I've done this and so will you. My lips did get very dry and chapped I mentioned it to Dr. Callery and wrote me up for lip ointments; they worked great.

Things you need at home when you return (for your clear liquid diet):
Chicken Broth, sugar FREE jello, sugar Free tea, crystal lite, water bottles.

I am so happy for you! They are so great at Pomerado.
