Guest guest Posted June 22, 2000 Report Share Posted June 22, 2000 Most post ops were very forthcoming with information about their upcoming surgery. I on the other hand disseminated information on a " need to know " basis only. So, only family members know about my surgery. I did not even tell employers because some things I like to keep as MY BUSINESS. I just didn't want to hear ANYTHING detractors had to say. So, pre ops, you may want to carefully SELECT whom you should tell. le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2000 Report Share Posted June 22, 2000 le, I agree, only my family and some close friends know. At work, they only know that I am having some abdominal surgery. This may seem a little underhanded, but there are a few people who never have anything positive to say about anything and I didn't want to deal with them. When I begin losing weight they will probably think I'm dying or something. I may have to tell then.
