Today's my day!



Recommended Posts

I'm sitting in bed at my home sipping a bottle of Water waiting for my turn in the shower. I'm a mixed bag of emotions- nervous, excited, a little scared... my darling husband (the shower hog) is grumpy today. That's his way of showing me he's nervous.

My bag is packed and I'm ready to get this show on the road! I'm second on the list for this afternoon and set for surgery at 3pm.

Here's keeping my fingers and toes crossed that my surgeon is able to complete my band to sleeve revision in one operation and that everything runs as smooth as clockwork!

Thanks everyone! Surgery was a little longer than expected due to some scar tissue built up over my band. I came out bandless and sleeved!

My pain is manageable and I've been up and showered and had two walks around the ward with my sister. I'm on a self-administered pain pump which is great when I remember to press the button.

My Breakfast tray was whisked away when I was in the shower, but a nurse found me a sustagen to sip on. Water has been painful, but adding cordial to it has made it fine.
