Rescheduled Mini Gastric Bypass

Yesterday I was admitted for my mini gastric bypass and after waiting all night and day (the hospital admits the night before) I was told my surgery needed to be rescheduled because of a patient needing emergency surgery. My first response I was disappointed but then I hoped that the person who needed the surgery survived. My surgeon immediately rescheduled me for Monday October 10 (I am admitted Sunday night). I learned so much on what to expect at the hospital from my 24 hour admission. I packed to many nightgowns,they provided all toiletries , bring a book because I could not sleep and have a bag fill of patience. October 4 is only a couple of days away and I am much more ready now than before.

What a wonderful attitude you have about this delay. How nice that your thoughts are for the person needing the emergency surgery rather than ranting and raving after I am sure being on a pre-op diet etc. Good luck to you next week and let us know how it goes.

Good way of looking at the delay, good luck xx
