Jan 3rd-NC
Dear Brenda
I am not in Carolina, but we do have the same surgery date. I go in Jan 3rd at 8:30 a.m. for a mini gastric bypass. They say I will be out of the hospital on the 5th in the afternoon. I am pretty excited, and can't wait to be on the other side. I will be online if you want to chat or commiserate or just vent, let me know. Congratulations and good luck!

Hi Janet,
Time is getting closer!! My surgery is at 7:30. I know we will do fine. My husband took me out to Longhorn for my LAST SUPPER! I love that bread!! I am now watching what I eat. My doctor did not put me on a liquid diet for 2 weeks like some talked about.
I went to Walmart and got my bandages, protein drinks, wipes, chapped stick, sf jello, just to name a few items I will need after surgery.
Just to let you know a little about me, I am 5' 7" weigh 341 pounds. 54 years old and I'm married and have 1 daughter living and 1 grandson. My oldest daughter died from Hodgins disease (cancer).We live in Concord NC.
I am a teacher assistant/ bus driver for an elementary school here in Concord. I am a born again Christian. The Lord has really helped me through all my heartaches and trials that I have been through.
I'm here for you if you need to talk.
Brenda
