Hi all,

Had my DS surgery on Wednesday. Got to go home last night, which was a very pleasant surprise. Surgery went very well and I was walking and taking in fluids well, so got to go home a day early. Am so happy, since home is much more comfy! Focusing on fluids, walking, and resting. Got about 3 oz of a protein shake in earlier, but mostly just focusing on keeping hydrated. Just wanted to let you all know that things went well, and I'm back home. Thanks to everyone for the encouragement and recommendations for what to have on hand for when I got home. Hope I'm not forgetting anything, but if I am... let me know! :) So happy to be starting my new life!
