I'm Home.......Thanks for the Love BAF!

Good Morning BAF,

I had an amazingly successful surgery last Thursday morning and I’m feeling pretty good. I had no complications and was up and walking around the same night. I was released on Saturday afternoon and have been taking it easy. I am walking and getting my protein in but I’m struggling a little with nailing down a schedule for vitamins and other medications, so I’m going to contact the nurse today with a proposed schedule to make sure I have everything spaced out correctly. I’m not feeling hungry at all but sometimes I think I’m drinking too much too fast but I guess I’ll learn as I go.

I really appreciate and am thankful for all the well wishes, prayers and support from the BAF family. But I want to extend a special, heartfelt thank you to RachelNoel. Rachel and I met on BAF about a week before my surgery and she graciously volunteered to come to the hospital and check on me. She came bearing gifts and lots of invaluable advice while I was in recovery. She is so sweet and giving of her time and I can’t thank her enough. It meant so much that an absolute stranger would be so kind and concerned for my well being. I hope I have the opportunity to return the favor someday. Rachel, your visit was really comforting. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Kim....so glad things went well for you!  Isn't it such a blessing to have so much support and well-wishes from people you have never laid eyes on?  Kudos to Rachel...that was so nice of her!

Just continue to follow your Dr's orders and rest.  It will take a little time to get used to that new pouch and it's rules.  Feel free to ask all the questions you need, we are here for ya!

Thanks Kim!  The kindness of strangers is truly a blessing.

WONDERFUL!!  That's great news!

Hi Kim!

I'm so glad all went well for you and that you are on the road to recovery!!  Kudos to Rachel for her support!

A big congrats Kim!!  Glad everything worked out... isn't that something in today's society...strangers still can be loving to others in this country!  Goes to show you - there's still good people left in the world of craziness.

You are so welcome!!  I am so glad to hear that you are home and doing well!!!  We all need support and even though I'm still a "newbie" I know how it important it was for me to talk to someone who had already been in my shoes so I wanted to return the favor.  I wish you continued success on this amazing journey we are both beginning to embark on and dont hesitate to call/text or email me if you need anything i.e support, workout partner (which I need LOL) etc.  WELCOME TO THE LOSERS BENCH!!!!!!!!
