I'm ALIVE

Hey guys, I am still here, lol.  Surgery went well.  They told me they had a hard time getting the breathing tube in because I don't have normal insides (something to that effect) but I'm OK and no sore throat. 

I fell asleep while I was waiting to see the surgeon and he said he can save money on anesthesia because I was already out, lol.  So funny. 

I don't remember going under but after what seemed like seconds only they were waking me up and telling me I had surgery.  I guess I didn't  believe them because they kept insisting, lol.  I just wanted to sleep.

I have some pain in one incision on the left side but am OK otherwise.

thanks for all the support and prayers.

Hugs, Kathy

TY Sanda,

My asthma has been acting up so they don't have me up walking yet. 

Water goes down Ok but they just brought me beef broth, sf jello, sf lemonade, and tea with sweetener. My stomach has been growling but I'm afraid to eat No instructions with food.  Pain is worse now but to be expected and will pass.
