Wow, that's pretty cool of you having family living here on the island.  Such a small world isn't it?

I was feeling a bit down when I posted my message above and I'm told it's not unusual to cry at some point after general anaesthesic.  A friend had a major crying jag once she got home from one of her surgeries (non-WLS).  I'd never had that experience before but it happened after I got home and I got a little teary today, too. 

Reality is different but it's good!  One thing that surprised me though is not being able to drive.  I suppose it has to do with the internal healing necessary and maybe if you're still on pain meds but it took me by surprise.
