I had a coupla days of "OMG what have I done!" but got overmyself and got down to the business of getting better - within oe day I was headed home!! YAY!!!

I just got home about 4 hours ago and am I ever glad to be here!  I'm working on liquid hydration first and foremost then trying for protein when possible. 

I was surprised I still felt hunger.....I don't know why, but I was. 

Now that I'm over the pity party portion of this grand event, I'm feeling really grateful to have been given this second chance at life!!  I'm anxious for this time to pass and to feel "normal"!!!

Love you all!!  Thanks for any chicken swinging, prayers or anything else you sent my way - they worked!!!

Quite of us have felt hunger immediately since surgery. You're not the only one. :)

I'm glad to hear that everything went well. Give yourself time to heal, you'll feel "normal" soon.

The "what have I done?" is normal.  I'm glad to see you are feeling better and are working on getting in your water and protein! Welcome to the loser's bench! Debi
