Katie's Band

Hi all, this is Katie's husband posting while she is still in the hospital.

She went in on Apr 11, at 11:30am, the doctor said everything went fine, and Katie is doing good. She was supposed to come home today, but the swelling around her esophagus is preventing liquids from passing at a rate the doctor would like. There is a chance they might have to go back in and install a larger band, we wont know anything until tomorrow.

We're hoping she'll be able to come home tomorrow, and should be back posting in a few days!

We pray that she is doing better and will be home soon. The first few weeks are the worst. Support one another as you go through this life changing journey.

Well, the second surgery went as planned! The problem she was having before has been fixed, and she should be home tomorrow!

Oh GOOD! I'm so relieved to hear that. What a tough break, poor thing. I'm thinking about you Katie and wishing the fastest recovery possible. Best wishes and lots of hugs, Teresa

WHEW!!! So glad that you are doing much better Katie. Come and post when you feel up to it. HUGS!!!!!!

Hope you're up and about soon Katie, sorry you had to go through so much to become a bandster. I wish you the best girl, you deserve it after all you've been through. Take care of yourself.
