Hi everyone!

Just came back from doctor's office and have a October 28th surgery date for Gastric Bypass. This is it, the high diving platform. Knees are trembling.

Anyone else in October? Let's keep in touch as we support each other. We have the pre-op diet and getting mentally ready for this.

LET'S DO IT!

I guess that makes sense but none of my children are school age.

thats crazy but I thinks it's to protect you kids from the ones in the hospital.

There was no reason for the nurse to be rude though.

I will be careful, usually if I have to lift we always have to do it with another person at least. I know what people to call on when I need help lifting. Plus it depends on what they are having me do, I am a float CNA so I'm all over the hospital, I may do a close observation one day, on a floor another day or monitoring a group of people via a monitor. I have choices, most of the staffing people know I've had surgery and can accommodate me well.
