Patti Skiba is out of surgery and now revised!

[Guest guest]

Crissy Wagner just called me from Mt Sinai and our Patti is out

of surgery and heading to recovery. Doctor Gagner said this is

his first DS revision ever, that it all went much easier than he

thought, and that he had shortened Patti's common channel to 50

cm. He did not need to revise her stomach. She did have some

adhesions near the top of the stomach/esophagus, which may have

accounted for some of the problems Patti was having eating. She

is expected to do well and, of course she will with her DH and

Crissy right there with her.

Over and out,

: So glad to hear that Patti is doing well. Whew! 50 cm --

wow! What a revision, right (I think she got the 'standard' GAgner

100 cm previously, right?).

Please give her my best -- I will call tomorrow and see how she is!
