Me the day after my surgery

Well I did it. I had my surgery. I am in a little bit of pain, not bad though. Well not as bad as i had thought it would be. My tummy has 6 incisions, three of them have purple bruises. Sal took a picture of my stomach for me. I don't know how much i weigh. I weighed 226 just before surgery yesterday. Angel and Jerry, my dad and of course Sal were up to see me last night. I have pain in my chest but that is because of the gas they had to put in me to expand my stomach. It helps when i walk so that is what i have been doing. Sal had to bring a step stool upstairs for me just so i could get into bed. Its hard to get up and get down. Once i am there i am ok though. TOmorrow is the fair in Sayville, so i plan on going there to walk around a bit. Its also JOyces bridal show but i am going to miss it. I didn't think i would feel up to that. Katelyn is getting better not as homesick. SHe has 2 more weeks. I'm so happy because she told me she finished one of the books she had to read for school, and she is working on one of the other ones. Well thats it for today. We'll see how tomorrow goes. I am finally on my way DOWN:smile::redface::eek:
