Gumpgal 45 Posted July 29, 2015 Hey Guys! I'm officially on the losers bench. Had my surgery yesterday at 10 am. Feeling good, just tired. I am ready to get the swallow study over with. I hope it doesn't hurt to drink????. My Mom stayed with me in the hospital and she has been such a trooper. Helping me to the bathroom, walking the halls with me. I am 36 years old, BUT it's still nice to have my Mom around when I am not feeling well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
