What a day.  We were up at 4:30, at the hospital at 6:30 and into surgery at 9:00 and was out at 12:30!  That was a long 3-1/2 hours.  He was in recovery for 2 hours and up to his room.  He was so groogie and his stomach hurt badly (that I did not want to know).  But give him 3 hours of fitfull sleeping and lots of pain meds he was up walking.    Berry said I should say HI to all!   I am on day 5 of the LD.  I can honestly say that I like the Boost!  Give me a couple more days and I might change my mind.  Berry lost 21 days on his LD.  Have to see if I can come close to that!  As far as I know, he is coming home tomorrow.  I will try to keep all posted!  Take Care - Lynn

Hi Lynn, So glad to hear that Berry made it through surgery just fine. Good too that he is up and walking around that really does help with everything.  Good Luck finishing up your LD before surgery. I am sure you will finish up just fine. Take care,

Thanks so much for the wishes.  I am glad Berry went first but kinda wish I had also!  When I saw him in such pain, it kinda shows me what I will go through in ten days!  Child birth was painful too and I wouldn't trade the pain for the beautiful end result!  I am thinking this is kinda the same!   Lynn

Lynn, I was wondering when we would hear from you!!! So happy Berry made it thru just fine!!! Can't wait to hear more updates!!! So your surgery is what the 27th or 28th? So do you like any special flavors of the Boost more than the others? I know Sherry S is bringing some to the next group. Do you think you will be able to make it on Thursday night? Would love to see you again!!!  Tell Berry I said I am happy things went well for him and welcome to the Losers bench!! He better update for you too!!!!  WooHoo!!!! CarolN

Hi there friend!  My surgery is the 28th.  I like all three flavors.  I was hoping there was some pizza or steak flavors but decided that would be too wrong! LOL   I truely want to go Thursday.  My pre-op is the same day at 3:00 in Little Falls.  So I will see what the time looks like after I am done!  I will make sure Berry posts when I am taking my turn!  Take care.  Thanks so much for everything.
