What a time I had. No, I wasnt part of the 95% who are out of the hospital in 3 days, I was in for 2 months with complications, and sometimes thought I would not get home at all. But here I am, down 95 pounds, and very grateful for the surgery. I have a friend at work who badly needs the surgery and was considering it until she saw what I went through. Its sad, she limps around in knee pain and wont even conisder how much the surgery would help her!. Anyway, Thank you Dr. Tananka, Dr. Mary, the nurses at Scripps-Mercy, Staci O for the amazing support while I was stuck there all alone (I live in N. CA), and Thank You God for this surgery.
