Surgery Went Great!

Hi All,

My surgery April 28 at Alexian Brothers with Dr. James Kane was a big success! I stayed until Saturday, since I live near Champaign-Urbana, IL, and he didn't want me to take off and head south so soon. Dr. Kane was everything some of you said he was - so patent, kind and his team the same.

I had a few things like a sugar elevation, a little short of oxygen and my blood was too thin, but they worked around it. The surgery is a big deal, but one that most can get through. Eight days out and I have lost 16, so I think that is OK. I go back on the 12th to have drain removed, etc.

Thanks for all the support - love reading your posts.

Thank you for letting us know how surgery went. Glad you are doing well! 16 pounds gone wow don't that make you feel great!
Best Wishes

Hi!

Thanks for the nice note. I am doing well, wish this drain was out!! I should not complain though.
I go back next Tuesday for post-op visit.

Hope things are going well for you!

You are doing great. Your ride is just beginning. I love the Kane Center too.

Hey Lisa!

How are you? I love The Kane Center. Although, out of all the people - Alexian included, I think Dr. Kane's nurse was the only one who needed to be a little nicer. But then, maybe it was me?!?

I think I am doing well, and that is is exactly how I feel.

I love Mary Engelbreit and have her daily calendar. The day of surgery it was her famous print called, Don't Look Back! I told my sister what could be more appropriate for the day?

Take Care,
Georgianna
