Scared To Fall Asleep. I Don't Want To Be Late.

[BombShelle 31]

I have always felt like a butterfly inside. I have always felt that I just needed to shed so that my little light of many colors could shine through. OMGGGGGGG...I haven't slept in almost 2 days. This metamorphosis is long over due!!! The road to success for a butterfly has never been easy....but all the hard work is so worth it. A butterfly starts it's life as an egg.....all round and juicy (like me). At 3:25pm...I will go into the operating room as an EGG but will emerge as a LARVA (caterpillar). Sure....I will spend many months as a PUPA, but it won't be long before I can spread my wings and fly!!! My grandmother use to tell us kids that BUTTERFLIES are wishes/prayers trying to make it to Heaven to be heard by God. I thank God for butterflies and I am thanking God in advance for a successful surgery, a speedy recovery, and healthy healing and living for all of us Friday, July 13th Sleevers!

Thank You sooooo much. I'm looking forward to anesthesia (I'm so sleepy) and pain meds (my back is killing me). Right now I'm looking for things to do to keep from falling asleep.

May your journey be as easy as He sees it to be, and you work to accomplish.

He gives love and understanding, we provide ourselves with the rest...

Thank You guys. Feeling much better today. Fluid in my lungs is completely gone, the rashes and itching I had came from the pain meds (morphine) is gone (still a little red in some areas but the itching is gone, Clear Liquids are going down fine. Im peeing really well. No bowel movement yet, but im very optimistic really soon. Blood pressure has came down now that the pain in my back, sholder and chest has eased up a bit, staple line in my stomach looks really good (no leaking) over all feeling great. They will take out my staples today and put the surgical glue in its place b4 I head home. I will discharge between 10am and 5pm. I'm still on oxygen, but they will be taking it away soon. Again..thank you all.

bombshelle,

I'm so glad to hear you are doing well. thanks for sharing as my day gets closer I'm getting more nervous but hearing your story gives me hope thank you!

@ Helleva...it was the best decision I have ever made for myself. I guess being nervous is a normal reaction for anything new or unknown....but good GooglyMoogly, I feel great being 1 week post op today. Everything went text book. Don't get discouraged. My only regret is that I didn't do this sooner. But there is no time like Gods time. I wish you all the best and that you stay on task with all your many hoops that we all must and should (i guess) jump through. #teamwinningbutlosingoverhere!!!!!!
