Hi Karen, I hope that you have a successful, swift, and problem-free recovery! The new you will emerge very soon. You know that each day will get easier for you. Try to walk carefully, deep breathe and cough. Take those pain meds and try to stay comfortable. Let us know how you make out. Good luck, continued success and God bless. Soft, little hugs to you today! DI from NJ, Lap RNY 12/09/03 -52 lbs *In Loving Memory of Momma Angel*
