I had my surgery on the 12th

Morning everyone, I just wanted to let u all know that I had my surgery on wed morning at 11 am as expected. Not one thing went wrong. I am being taken very good care of by my husband and my parents. Im going to recoup at my parents house for about a week before going home. I was on ice chips only on Wed and on Iv dilauted pain meds. Then thu I was put on clear liquids for breakfast and lunch and by dinner my IV was out and I was on full liquids and on liquid loratab. Which is what Im still on today. Ive been belching since day one and then on Fri I started passing gas the other way... I was so glad. Ive heard so many say that 7 days out they still hadnt started to pass gas or have a bm....well Im still havent had that one but at least I dont feel like Im going to explode from gas. I guess they really pump alot of gas in you when they do it lap. So far so good. Mariah

Congratulations, Mariah. So glad it is over the hump now of the surgery. Now begins the healing and learning. You are on your way, girl!! WTG... SHELLEYANNE

Mariah, Welcome back!! Sound like you did great, congrats on being on the losing side Jaime

Mariah, Sounds like your doing great I'm so happy for you. I'm getting really nervous for Tuesday to be here, but I know all will go good. Keep up the good work and keep me in your prays. Kathi

Kathi, So far its been easy sailing for me. If u have someone to keep you on schedule and knows what u should be doing. It really helps. I was lucky enough that my mother took the job of babysitter for me. Shes the reason I think Ive done so well. She takes walks with me. She gets my meals when Im to sleepy. She plain ole keeps my but on track doing what I should be doing. I'll keep you in my prayers and pray that u have someone that can help you out after surgery. Theres nothing like a mommy when u need taken care of. I do have to say that most of this has been easier than I ever though it would be. im really affraid to say that ....but its the truth. Mariah
