  1. Only 12 hours and 40 minutes till surgery!! I'm ready and so excited. I am so glad I found this site so I can be prepared mentally. I know I will feel like crap and want to die for a couple days so I will deal with it! I have chosen to do this.

      So I was sleeved yesterday at 7:30am and got home from the hospital taday at around 3. I was at Buffalo Medical Campus( Buffalo General Hospital) and can't even say enough good stuff about that hospital. When you ring your call ball they are there within a minute! I never waited for anything. And they were all sooooo nice. The surgery went very well and I was up walking around within a few hours. Take your little pillow, I found it very helpful and comforting. I have 5 little incisions and the only tender ones are the center 2. The liquid lortab is pretty yuckymbut watered down it is tolerable. The UGI this morning to check for leakage wasn't bed. I had heard the drink tasted bad but I didn't think so. They let me watch the screen but it was greek to me!So now back to sleep, something I've done a lot of today. It's my poor hubby's Birthday and this is what he gets to do....take care of me!
