Positive words will make me feel better 😭😭😭😭😭 Firstly, don't worry about it. Really couldn't be in a better place *IF* things happen. Which, odds are in your favor that they won't. Fear about surgery is 100% totally normal. Just give yourself a break and don't worry about being worried. Soon enough you'll be sleeping away while the docs work and you'll wake up to a whole new chapter of your life. Be excited. Change is scary, but this change is good. 5 John Kitsu, Jingle123423, Wanda247 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted August 17, 2018 And He Will! He loves us as a Shepherd does, helping the weaker lambs until they can be healed and rejoin the flock. And as He watches over the tiniest sparrow he will watch over our friend until she is whole again! Don't we Serve an Awesome God? Lets agree on this in 🙏prayer! 3 jultrim18, jacon and SingingEagle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jultrim18 132 Posted August 18, 2018 Hi everyone!!! I am doing completely fine right now. Just trying to get some rest. I am very thirsty right now. After the operation, I was on a lot of discomfort with gas pains and nausea. I threw up flemmy blood. Luckily they gave me something for my nausea that knocked me out. I felt like I was able to walk right after my sleep. I did end up walking 1/4 of a mile in the unit!!! I was scared, but once I was in the hospital, everyone was so kind that you kind of forget about it Bc I asked how many sleeves they have done today. Thanks for all the prays my friends. I truly needed it. FYI, it is a very long process. I was in the pre op stage waiting in my bed at 12:50pm, then I finally got my room at 9:30pm!!!!! My poor parents. Any questions, please just let me know ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ 3 sassysleever76, AEdoesRnY and kygirl68 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They told me it was from the tube that was down my throat. I also asked my step mom, who is an OBGYN, and she said it was very normal. Don’t worry, I made sure to ask everyone Bc I was so scared of heaving blood!!! 2 Frustr8 and AEdoesRnY reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
