Went for a follow up today!

Being that I spent my day in the hospital on Saturday, my Dr. wanted to follow up with me today to look at my "hole". Before I went in to see him, I got weighed. Today is my 3 week mark and I am down "34"lbs! I AM SOOOOOOOO EXCITED! Who cares if I have an infection and there is a hole in my chest, I am down 34lbs. No, really I do care about my "hole" and the Dr. said they want to look at it again at my 1 month check up next Wednesday and if it doesn't look any better, they will cut me open a little more! (NO WAY!) Best of luck to all of you on this INCREDIBLe journey! Mike

That is a GREAT weight loss in only 3 weeks!!! Make sure you concentrate on healing too. Kell
