I just wanted to thank everyone that emailed me and prayed for me during my surgery. I did stay in ICU for a few extra days due to some breathing problems, but I am a really big guy and have a lot of problems breathing when I am laying down and could not sit up immediately after the surgery. The words of encouragement meant a great deal to me and my wife and a special thanks to dx for the plant and visit! I am doing great now-better and better every day! I went for my first post-op visit tuesday. I had my surgery on 10/10/05 and had my visit on 11/1/05. I had lost 47 pounds!!!! I couldn't believe it! The first week was really tough, but my family stood right there with me throughout it all and I made it just fine. Thanks again to everyone for all their emails and good luck to anyone considering the surgery for themselves. If you have any questions about what it's like, I'd be happy to tell you about my experience. I know it will all be worth it. I feel so much better already and it is just going to get better from here!
