I am sitting in the loby of the Marriott waiting for Abraham with alighterme to come and transport me to Mi Doctor. The rooms here are very nice they just have very thin walls. I think all the plumbing ran down the inside of my walls of my room last night. I didnt get much sleep because of it lol. Well time to head to the hospital. will try to post how I am feeling after surgery if I am up to it.

well now it is a waiting game again. I have had my blood work done, EKG, talked with Dr Lopez and the anesthesiologists. Now I just sit here and wait for my turn. He is doing a couple of ladies before me. Since I am a bypass and they are sleeves. I guess they are easier to do? I don't know. My surgery might not happen till this afternoon.

LOL my bed needs to go to a auto body shop and get the frame straightened out. It kind of tilts to one side. I might roll out of it when I am sleeping LOL but hey at least I have a room by myself and the view is fantastic. LOL I see the noisy freeway.

On the bright side. Netflix in Mexico has better movies on it then. I am used too.

I pray everything went well.  Sorry about the bed.  I'm very interested in alighterme Dr Lopez, his wife, TJ.  I want a RNY, so any details are appreciated.  Rest well!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our Light, not our darkness that most frightens us. 
We ask ourselves -- Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people do not feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the Glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone.
And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others.

Well I think they wheeled me down to the OR about 3. I have no idea what time I got out. I just barely remember thme  bringing me back to the room. I had a little pain this morning at about 530. I think it was gas because it was under my ribcage, I did get worried in the middle of the night because my drain tube kept filling up with blood. It still is. they keep coming in and empty it. The night nurse dont speak english so they cant explain why this is happening, uf it keeps draing like this I wont have any bllood left. lol

I think the anesthesia did something to my eyes. Every thing is supper blurry with and without my glasses on. that is why so many typos lol.

so now I am waiting for the Dr. or someone to come and tell me whats going on. the good thing is i have not had any pain meds at all.

You WANT the drain to fill like that. They are looking for it to be more clear. You do NOT want the blood to stay in your body because that will cause adhesions. It is a very good thing! I love the night nurse, she is very nice. She doesnt speak english, but so so sweet!
