LBrown 09 49 Posted January 4, 2017 I am schedule to have my sleeve around 2:30. I'm quite emotional because I am here by myself. My husband is at work and the kids get out of school around that time so it made sense for him to tend to them since I will be spending the night. My dad dropped me off at the hospital but because I choose to only tell my husband about the surgery, he didn't stay. So much going on in my head right now and tears watering my eyes. Praying for all those going through surgery today. I don't question my decision about not telling anyone. The emotions are for the unknown that I will face in a couple of hours and moving forward.

Malin 470 Posted January 4, 2017 I know right now you're kinda lonely, but soon you'll be back home and starting your new life. My kids are older so we didn't have to be home when they did, but my husband did not hang around much that evening after the surgery. I was groggy and sore anyway.

Syaniya 319 Posted January 5, 2017 Good luck, by now you should be sleeved and up walking trying to get rid of those gas pains. You'll feel so much stronger knowing YOU did this!!!!! When I go in for surgery my husband won't be able to go either as we have 2 kids he'll have to take care of, so I'll also be alone. You can do it ????

LBrown 09 49 Posted January 6, 2017 Thanks everybody! I had to spend an extra night in the hospital because I couldn't get my nausea/puking under control. Other than that and some occasional irritating gas pains, everything else is going good. I'm getting in many laps at the hospital and really no pain at all on surgery sites.
