Home from Thurday's surgery
Can't believe it...I'm on the losers side after waiting soooo long. The acutal day of the surgery was a blur. My husband tells me all these things I did but I don't remember (like get our of the bed in recovery and walk). The nurses at my hospital get an A+ for compassionate care. Yesterday I walked and sipped and sipped and walked. When I got my meals it was so funny. An ounce of broth, an ouce of dc tea and ouce of lemonad and an ounce of sf jello. Just a timy amount of food. Not that I was (or am) hungry. I went down for a UGI yesterday morning for my leak test. The barium was particularly nasty since I hadn't had any food yet.
But I am doing good. Working the program and doing what I am suuposed to be doing. The gas part seems to be taking care of itself thankfully so no problems there.

Glad to hear you are doing so well ... it is really helping my nerves. 
Keep us updated along the way! I hope mine goes as smoothly as yours does! 
What wonderful news! I love the part about you getting out of bed and walking...before you were even out of recovery! I can't wait to see your "before" and "after." Continue to do well and keep us posted.
P.S. How lovely you had a family member with you; as a single person with family hundreds of miles away, I'm doing this alone. Scary! I hope I do even half as well as you.
