A friend of mine just had her surgery yesterday, and she's doing great! They even sent her home yesterday afternoon. She has come so far (emotionally speaking) to have this done, and I'm so proud of her. She has been a friend of mine since before I was banded, and when I had it done, she kept saying, "I could never do what you've done" because she had an extreme fear of doctors. Obviously, she had to overcome that fear to end up lying on the operating table yesterday. I don't have those kinds of fears, so for me, having the surgery was not really a big deal from that perspective. But I've watched her go through this, and she has come so far. I AM SO PROUD OF HER!!
