Hey everyone just wanted to pass along that we are going into the hospital tomorrow morning. They will clean him out and surgery will be @ 9:30 Wed morning. I will find out tomorrow how he going to do the surgery please pray they can do it through his rectum. I don't want them to have to cut him open. I will be at Presby in the childrens floor if anyone wants to call or come by. I will be there alone most of the time except the day of surgery the whole family will be there. I think I have most of your numbers in my phone so I will call someone to ask them to post here how he did. I am not sleeping much but I know it's just my nerves with all that is going on. So I am hoping after this is over I will be able to get some rest. I am just so ready got Curtis to heal and for us all to get this behind us.

Thanks for your continued thoughts and prayers as I know that is what is pulling us through. :D

Thanks everyone...I will be leaving here in about an hour. I am nervous but ready. He is in there playing right now. I feel so bad because I know what we are doing and he has no idea. I know it's best not to tell him.

Alright I should be home friday or saturday...I will update you then unless I hear from someone who can do it for me. Please feel free to call or come by...well those of you local. We will be @ Presby downtown.

Thanks again....here we go!!!!!

Kim called earlier to say that Curtis was in recovery and doing fine. I'm sure he is back in his room by now since this was not too long after lunch when she called. I just got home and this was the first chance I got to log on and tell you all.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
