Update!

Thanks for all your support this year, particularly after I had my stroke. At this point, I'm in rehab relearniing everything from washing to20kilos, cooking and sitting on a chair - I've gone back to baby days. I'm pleased to say that I have now lost 20kilos, but wouldn't suggest that anyone have a stroke - it changes your life for the better, it changes your life forever - not for the better. I'm still here and winning my battle. I Haven't had a fill yet, but don't feel hungry ever! I haven't PB'd - thanks to the nurses who dob on me for doing the wrong thing. I had my first real belch in 2 months today. it was long but came out in small amounts!

I don't regret my band after having a stroke post-op. it could have happened anyway, given my dud blood genes.

Cheers,

Jen

Great to hear from you Jen. I went through this with my brother so I know exactly what you're going through. He had to relearn eveything as well. Good luck on getting well and keep us posted.

I'm glad to hear from you. I was wondering about you and have sent you a private email since I didn't see you around. I was banded one day before you and was used to seeing your posts and then you weren't around. I had no idea you had a stroke. It sounds like your doing well and I wish you all the best. Keep up the good work and my thoughts are with you for a speedy recovery.
