ILL LET YA KNOW HOW IT GOES IF YA WANT ME TOO AND GIVE YA SOME POINTERS AFTER THE FACT ANYWAY GOOD LUCK AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU SAFE
Gerald-
Congrats! I bet you are so happy! I am 5 days post op with a lap done by Dr. Gibbs. He is awesome!! Carrie is SUPER! I think lap is the way to go if you can. Open may be cheaper but the hospital stay, recovery time & time off work is longer. It is also so much less invasive. I wish you the best of luck. If you have any questions feel free to ask!
God Bless,
Melissa
