I inspired my mom :)

I am sitting next to my mom's hospital bed watching her sleep. She just got sleeved and everything went well. I'm staying overnight. Boy! This beings back memories when I got sleeved 2yrs, 1 month and 5 days ago. Best decision we ever made!

that's awesome. When I told my mom I wanted this surgery, she told me she had been thinking about getting the band. I've tried to steer her away from that as gently as possible, but I know she's curious to see how I do with surgery before she makes any decision. I hope to be by her side if she makes this choice too! What a wonderful thing to go through together!!

Good luck to her! and to you too!

That is so great! When I started this process both my parents didn't want me to do it. My mom has just about made a 180 turn. Don't get me wrong, I wont be sitting by her side watching her sleep after her sleeve (she doesn't need it anyway) but she is so supportive now. It is great to have wonderful relationship with your momma! It is great that you are such an inspiration to so many!

That's great that she's supportive. My mom doesn't "need" me here but she was there for me during my 3 day stay so I decided to return the favor so she won't be alone and bored. It sucks being in the hospital. I work here and so does my dad so we know the ropes and get around with our badge as if it was home. It's fun, lol

My mom was there with me too at night while my husband and kiddos were there during the day. It meant so much to me for her to be there with me, I know your mom appreciates you!

Yes, my dad came this morning and told me to go home and come back (and I'm back) she walked 2 laps and say up for awhile while I was gone and had 60mls of Water. Woohoo!

My dad wanted to spend the night, she said no, lol my poor dad
