offically on the losers bench!
on 1/18/17 5:37 pm
Doctor Gamora and his team were fantasic, I was really scared going into surgery but he spoke with me before and made me feel really comfortable. I was in recovery for a while due to really bad pains but I'm feeling better now, mostly gas pain and where my drain is. I went for my first walk and hope to squeeze a few more in tonight, I'm not allowed any water until tomorrow so I will be sipping away in the morning. Thank you everyone for the support you've given me leading up to this surgery; now off to sleep!
Glad everything went well. Welcome to the loser's bench.

I'm so sorry it's been so rough. Will they let you take Gas-X or is that not allowed after surgery?
I imagine you'll feel more comfortable at home. Fingers crossed they discharge you tomorrow.
I hope you'll be able to get some rest tonight.
Take care,
