Hello all!
As my title says, I am 5 days out from surgery. I had my pre-op visit with my surgeon today, Dr. Harvey Rainville in Glen Ridge, NJ and looks like I'm all set to go. I was told that it was only one night in the hospital but I requested that I stay for two nights as my Brother, who basically takes care of me will be having very severe spinal surgery in just a few weeks and is living in excruciating pain; he is just not able to handle me right away. Dr. said fine and will keep me in the hospital even if I am fine to go. He is such a nice man! Also, since my first visit with him three months ago, I have lost 22.5 lbs, that made both the Dr. and me very happy. Wish me luck.
Thanks and be safe and healthy and of course HAPPY!
