My husband has been through every step of the way with me since this past February when my journey to have gastric sleeve surgery began. I chose not to tell anyone but him and one other person about this surgery because it is very personal to me. He has had to listen to me complain about my weight and sometimes even try to blame him for helping me gain all of this weight because he is such a good cook! He must really love me to keep putting up with all of the ups and downs I have gone through to get where I am, and THAT is 12 days from my new surgery day!
He has now decided that after I am on the road to recovery that he is going to start the process to have the same surgery!!! I can't wait till our rolls are reversed and it is me listening to him during the ups and downs that he will more than likely have to go through. It will be well worth it in the end though because good Lord willing we will both get to have this surgery and will both be on the right path to healthier lives.
