My surgery went well and I am still in the hospital recuperating.  I'm still in quite a bit of pain but the procedures went well and so far so good - no infections! (knock on wood).  Greg (my son) got to go home today from the hospital (he was one floor below me) and I'm hoping to go home on Monday.  Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.

Hi, Amy.
Kim had a hernia (or 2?) repaired and her gallbladder removed. Bless her heart. I'm sure she's going to do very well this time. No more infections!
Blessings,
Mary

Girlfriend - you just can't get enough of hospitals, huh?  LOL!  I had my gallbladder removed before wls and I felt so much better so here's hoping for the same for you!  Take it easy and take gentle care of yourself!

He removed my gallbladder first lacroscopically.  Then he cut me from the belly button down to repair a peristomal hernia as well as a hernia by my belly button.  He then reorganized my colon so it would sit in my belly better.  I'm doing pretty good considering, but I definitely am feeling the pain of all of the procedures.  They finally fed me today.  I went 5 days without eating so I was very ready to eat.  Of course, I didn't eat much but at least I got to eat something.
