Well I was sleeved on the 17th. Surgery went well but I woke up feeling so sick. Took a while, lots of rest and hitting that morphine pump quite a few times but by 4pm I was good. I got up and walked and walked. Had a problem passing urine and was about to get a cath when bam, I finally went potty enough. The nurses were surprised how well I was getting around. I slept ok lastnight had a little bit of reflux pain but no real gas pain. I burped some but that was about it. This morning the took me for my leak test and all was good. They brought me a breakfast and lunch trey within 20 of eachother. I sipped on my water and broth. The nurse came in an removed my iv and morphine and said I could go home. So my mom came to get me and the car ride home was good. I don't live too far from the hospital. I felt pretty good so I asked my mom if she would stay while I took a shower and then she head home. I did my walking too my pain meds and slept. I have been sipping on my protein shake and my water taking it slow so I don't have any surprises. My tummy is over here talking to me as we speak but all in all I feel good.
