I am home and doing FABULOUS!!!!!
I am so sorry that I have not gotten onto the computer hardly at all since I arrived home from the hospital a week ago tomorrow. I spent 5 days in the hospital. That's a little longer than average for the lap RNY surgery that I had but my darn bladder didn't want to start working again so my surgeon kept me till it stopped being so lazy. :-)
My Mom is here from NY and we have been very busy. I have several personal messages here on OH and in email that I have just not had the time to read. My Mom will be here till Tuesday so I imagine after she leaves I'll be able to get on here more and check on my fellow Florida OH friends. I have been thinking of all of you and praying that those who had surgery recently, that it went as well as mine and for those upcoming it will go as well too.
I can't even tell you how well I'm doing... it's absolutely amazing. I could never have imagined I'd do THIS well and feel THIS good. I even joked with my Mom that it was all a hoax and that I really didn't have surgery. My Mom and I started walking a mile every morning and every evening the day after I got home from the hospital. Today we went out on our friends pontoon boat for the entire day and I felt fine even with climbing on and off the boat right from the water. Just miraculous to me.
I will not have time to really read and post here till after Mom leaves next week, so I invite you all to take a look at my blog to see how wonderful things went. I am in NO pain and never was from the time I came home from the hospital. The staples tug a little now and then when I move certain ways but it is minimal.
Ok... I've already spent too much time on the computer but really have been longing to get in here and am sneaking in for a few minutes only to post to let everyone know how wonderful I did.
My prayers that ALL of us do this well!
Hugs, Marianne C.
