On Friday, when I was at my daughter's house, I was able to slide off the sofa to the floor and play with my grandchildren. I was so happy, I nearly cried. Usually I would just sit on the sofa and hold them on my lap from there. But since I have lost some significant weight due to my sleeve, I was able to crawl on my hands a knees, get into the little living room tent and play with blocks and legos and dollys. The kids are 5, 3, and 1. That was the first time the five year old has seen me off the sofa. I had to have help getting up because of othopedic issues, but boy oh boy I had fun. This sleeve has been so worth the incovenience of some lifestyle changes. I'll get over it.

Congratulations! I have ortho issues as well but cannot wait for the day I have grandchildren now that I'll be able to get on the floor and play! That is an awesome NSV!!!!

Love that!
