Hey Folks,

Elaine here. I had the surgery on the 17th am not going to lie the first couple of days were very uncomfortable but only because I had a stuck gas bubble which was very sore. But apart from that I am feeling 95% better today. Moved from the hospital to the hotel on Friday. The hotel area that we are staying in is great. What is even better is that I don´t feel hungry at all. I went in starving and haven´t been hungry since. Dr Joya was great as was the other doctors the nurses and Natalie. I must admit though that I go to the restaurant with my dad (to have my broth) and the smell of the food still gets the mouth watering. So I have the feeling that it is not going to be quite as easy as others make out however I have realized that after the recovery period and when it is time to start eating "normal" food that I will be able to take a bit of something and that will be enough. So yes it is worthwhile and no it won´t be easy but I am willing to work at it and can´t wait for the summer to come.
