    CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR DAD'S weight loss. I'd be super proud too!

    It was complications with his sleeve. Two days post op they found 2 pin holes in his stomach. He had gone septic and was on life support for 3 weeks. After he was released from the hospital he was so weak and could barely walk he also had a feeding tube in his nose for two months post op. he had at least 15 surgeries due to them trying to fix the leaks. He had stints and pig cells put inside to help heal...now he is great :) thank god!
