So, completely hypothetically...

If you were to be in charge of naming an organization that awards grants for wanna-be bandsters to get this done when their insurance says no and they can't otherwise afford it, what would you name it?

Ready... go! :tongue2:

Oh, maybe Band of Hope, Banded Together, Lap of Life, just off the top of my head. If I come up with anything stunning, I'll add to the thread. :Dancing_biggrin: I do like the first one that someone else posted as well.

The surgery went great! No complications, the surgeon fixed my huge hiatal hernia (that I knew I had), and I feel so much better! The only residual is the gas pain in my left shoulder that still hurts quite a bit. Taking Vicodin puts me under for about four hours, so it has kind of wiped me out as far as getting anything done. Walking around only helps a little. But I'm sure it will dissipate - hopefully all at once! I've lost some weight after surgery and feel really good. Thanks for asking!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
