October 15th is the day for ME!

I talked with Christy today and we set up some dates.  My surgery date is Oct 15th which is great, it fits right into my plan.  I will have 3 1/2 weeks down time before I start Chirstmas portraits.  I am still looking for someone to help me during that time, but I think it will all work out fine.

I am have the open RYN so Dr. Barker can also take out my gallbader.  Christy told me the incision was only about 5 inches.

I plan to open my eyes and get my feet on the floor and start that walking ASAP. 

I do have to see a Hemotologist to clear me due to my prior blood disorders whille I was pregnant.  I have that set up for next Thursday and then I will see Dr. Baker on Sept 11th!  Wendy I may see your mom there!.

Congrats to you! I'm sure you are super excited. You got the right idea about it all!

  You're on your way.  Gotta go wipe of a place on the loser's bench!

Take care, we're here for you!

Hooray!!!!!!!

Congrats on the date, Amy.  Dr Baker did the open RNY on me as well.  His incision and stitching is incredible.  I healed very well and had no problems. Not the old stem to stern incision you usually think of.  Best wishes for a smooth ride.
