eve of my surg.

Hey Everyone,

Thanks so much for the positive thoughts.  Michelle got out of surgery around 1100 this morning and everything went perfectly.  She says that her dry mouth is bothering her more than any of the surgical pain. Hopefully she will keep doing so well and will be on her way home on Sunday morning.

Let me tell you, it is much more stressful and anxiety producing to sit and weight to hear how the surgery went.

Michelle had her upper GI X Ray this morning and Dr. Clarke was there and explained the images to her.  Everything looks great!  So we threw out the mouth swabs and she has started sipping, so she is much happier.  The pain medication was making her too sleepy and she did not like the way it was making her feel, so they cut back the medication and she is felling better.  She has been walking, a little over a mile so far.

Dr. Clarke thinks she will be heading home tomorrow.
