Surgery Tomorrow

My DH is being banded in the morning. I don't know about him, but I'm a nervous wreck. LOL I'm being banded on Monday. Hopefully, our son gets his approval this week. Our surgeon, said we are the first family he has ever done. LOL

What an inspiration to us all, a whole family doing it together. That will make the whole process easier I imagaine. Keep us posted on your recover and how you all three do.

Good luck to you and your family!

I was banded on Monday the 12th, my DH is getting Banded on the 21st.

I think it is bettr to do it together too.

I wish you all the best.

Good Luck, and enjoy the road to being healthy!:clap2:

Wow--that's awesome to be doing it together as a family. My husband is thinking about it also. We went to the initial seminar together. MY surgery was yesterday (11-13)--I think my DH wants to make sure that I do ok first before he commits to it. He's a big chicken!! I guess he figures that if I don't complain about it, then he might do ok. But then again--he's whiny when he gets sick and I'm not. And everytime I get sick he thinks he has it too. My Mom says that the only thing I've ever done that he hasn't is give birth--and he gained more weight than I did when I was pregnant. Too funny--but I think he might consider it if I do well with it. And so far so good... Good luck to everyone on their upcoming surgeries!!

:clap2:

Well, we are finally home from the hospital. I'm getting ready to head to bed. My DH came through the surgery without a hitch. Was up walking pretty quickly. He goes back in 3 weeks for his first fill. Mine is schuduled for the same day. His band will hold 14 cc. The doctor said mine will probably be the 11 cc band. Well, I'm heading to bed. I'm afraid I'm coming down with something. :)

Glad to hear things went well for your DH... I look forward to hearing how yours goes!
