Bridget, I'll say an extra prayer for you dear. Hopefully you will have help & support for the 1st 2 weeks especially. I'll pray that the WLS energizes you and for a speedy recovery. Emotions at this stage are very normal. Try to stay positive and focused on your ultimate goal of being healthy. Take it easy and remember to walk, sip & breathe. Remember to bring chap stick to the hospital. It'll be your best friend for the 1st couple days. ((HUGS)) Elissa
Elissa, thank you so much for your post. Again, everyones support means the world to me! Extra prayers always help!! Ironically, I just bought chap stick and packed it for the hospital! I am a nurse, and know how dry you get after surgery! I love being on the nurse side of the bed, not the patient!! LOL
Thank you so much!!
