Not being married and with both parents gone my niece is my next of kin. I found out she will not be able to take off work the day of my surgery. Because of my health issues I have a durable power of attorney and she will only be a phone call away, but it does make me a little uneasy.

You have the whole bariatric forum on your side and we are all on your side so feel blessed we are all wishing you great thoughts, my mom won't be there because she will not support me on having this surgery and will not go, thank God I have good friends.

Hi Pretty.ruby I just wanted to let you know I was sleeved on 5/2. Both my roommate and I were on our own for surgery and it was fine. In fact I preferred it that way. We both stayed 2 nights and had 1 visitor each. I was dozing off when my visitor came. I liked being able to text or call people when I was awake and sleep or walk when I wanted too. The staff come in and check your vitals every hour at night so you have to get your sleep when you can.

BTW surgery was not as bad as I thought it would be!

Surgery will be May 22nd So excited and happy. Anyone else that day?

Bumping this.

I've emailed her with no response. We shared a surgery date. Hope all is well.
