Amazing news ! ! !

OMG ! ! ! He's gonna be here in less than 6 hours.

He just called from Baltimore, and said half the team was offered to come home tonight instead of having an overnight layover ! ! ! He told them " put me on that plane, I'm ready to see my family." wubby.gifwubby.gifwubby.gif

I am officially freaking the hell out. Everything on the list is done with the exception of shaving, and that will be done here in a little bit.

I am so elated, and can't believe he will be home so soon. I just can't wait to see him again. Caysen yelled when I told him, and couldn't contain himself.

It's practically over. As soon as I am back in his arms, it will all be a distant memory. . .

Thank you all so very much for all of your support, prayers, well wishes, and love that y'all have given me over the last few months ! ! !

I may not be around for a couple of days, but I'll update as soon as I can with pictures.

Homecoming was amazing. He was walking towards the right side of the exit with a group of other guys. We were standing to the left, and I walked up closer to them, he looked right at me, and looked away. I stomped my feet, and he did a double take, and his mouth dropped. He ran to me, scooped me in his arms, and said " you look so amazing ". It was purely magical. Unfortunately, the airport was dimly lit, and none of the pictures came out worth a damn.

We embraced for what seemed like forever, and then Caysen moved in for his moment. It was precious, but I didn't cry. The higher ups showed up, and checked in their weapons and we headed home. Once we were in the truck, Caysen said the most tear jerking thing, he said " you know what Dad, I never knew it could feel so good to see someone." I almost cried again, but I felt so full of joy that I couldn't cry.

We got home unloaded everything. He played with the dog, then it was "us" time. It was absolutely amazing. We literally fell right back into place with everything. It all felt amazing, emotionally and physically. He has bulked up, but I love it. He was so happy with my results, and he couldn't believe how I looked.

He had to report in this afternoon at 1pm to turn in the issued gear, and hopefully he won't be gone long. We're cooking out on the grill tonight, and going to have a great time. He is so happy to finally be home. Life is somewhat back to normal. I never thought I would happy to see uniforms laying around again. But, it's such a huge relief.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
