  1. I am here in Mexicali now. I have one more night to stay before returning home. I have to say Aceves and his team do a great job. I adored my nurse Leticia. Everyone is so kind and helpful. if you have any questions fire away.
  2. Ahhhhhhh. thank you for the flowers, they are lovely! lol I am here another 2 nights. as far as feeling different, I am shocked I don't feel starving after not eating for over 24 hr . iv fluids must be doing the trick!
  3. I am feeling pretty good. I was first in for surgery out of 3, afterwards I slept quite a bit off and on. Been walking around, it really is a nice clean hospital. Its 1 am and I cant sleep, woke up after about 4 hrs solid sleep. Perfect time to send out some emails. I think staring at the screen might make me a sleeping pill, but im feeling well and don't want to challenge my tummy yet. I have yet to even sip water I feel incredibly blessed to have your prayers and support. Glory to God things are going well!
  4. Thank you for that info. Yesterday went well with preop testing. There is another couple here at the same time which is such a blessing. Calmed my husbands nerves to have someone here to talk to about man concerns. had a nice steak dinner last night, now lying in bed in hotel morning of surgery. The hospital and doctors seem very nice. I know I shouldn't be worried but I'm guessing its normal before any surgery to feel a bit over whelmed, waiting to actually get everything going. I appreciate any prayers you could say. Thank you! I'm missing my kiddos and look forward to returning home to them! I'll keep you posted as toggle the days events go. Right now it's 5:45a and I'm going to get showered and packed for out 7:00 pick up.
  5. Todays the day! Prayers!
  6. I can't believe in 2 days I will be having my surgery. I've heard a couple people mention getting extra acid pills and pain relievers at the pharmacy across the street. How much would I need, how much did it cost. Trying to see how much I might spend, meals for hubby, meds, tips for driver.
  7. About 48 hours til all this waiting comes to an end. Surgery on the 15th. Grateful for your prayers.
