Dr Kemmeter is a fabulous surgeon.  So glad to hear you are doing well.  Just remember sip sip sip, walk walk walk.  The ladies on the floor are amazing too.  Tomorrow you can look forward to the unjury and the water.  best of luck and keep in touch!

Wow, posting after only 12 hours!  You're amazing.  The pain pump is great.  Sounds like you're going to bounce back from this surgery in a flash.  Just remember your insides have been rearranged and will take longer to heal.  You'll feel good, but your insides need extra time, so take it easy.
Enjoy having your mom there to take care of you.
Your new Mantra:  Sip Sip Sip, walk walk walk.
