@Megi1107 yes my mother will be with me! She is more nervous than I am so don't know if she will be of much support lol!

i leave tonight be Thier in the morning to meet the shuttle how were the preop what did they do

Yaz- make sure your mom brigs something to do, Because shel have a lot of down time while you guys aren't together. Lvnmom- pre-op they take blood, and do an EKG and have u fill out a questionnaire about your health and history. They hook u up to iv fluids and you just wait your turn. I was lucky cuz I went second. Some had to wait a lot longer.

how are you doing today

I'm pretty good. The worst part is the gas pains

Hey all!!!! So sorry it toll so long to update! The gas pains were awful yesterday and last night. Way better this morning! Just got dressed and waiting to go over to the hotel :-) ill post a pic of pic of my incisions and drain. And I loved it here! Clean and the staff is so helpful and always nice and never annoyed seeming. I called my poor nurse what seemed like a million times lat might and he was nice every time!

No way. LoL hmmm so we wasnt lying hahaha.

I totally agree with you 100% with everything you just said. The first night was aweful because of the gas pain. On your 3rd day its gonna be so much better. Like a new person. Atleast thats how I felt once that thing was out my abdomen
