Thank you all for the well wishes, prayers and good thoughts...it obviously worked wonders for me. Also I ended up getting the catheter put in like everyone told me to and no bladder infection! I was sooo incredibly impressed with Kaiser S.S.F. and the care I got after the surgery. Time for another walk! Talk

to you soon**Azin!! PS Not sure if Marita has posted but she was doing great too. We both felt like we needed to be pinched because it felt too easy!

Azin,

Congratulations. Wow, I cannot believe you walked 7 blocks already that is

amazing. Glad you had the catheter put in also. I am so excited that it has been

so easy for you, I am glad there was no complications. Take care get rest and

sip away on that water. Congrats on the loss already I cannot believe that you

didnt gain weight while in there.

Kristie

Also, glad to hear that things went well for Marita also.

Azin,

Hi...CONGRATULATIONS!!! Welcome to the other side. I had my surgery on 9/28, so I am new at this too! It is just so relieving to finally be on the other side. I also had no complications after surgery. Keep up the great work.

Hello Everybody, well you all heard from Azin we made it to the other side. I

have been blessed, so far everything is working great. Had the surgery on

Wednesday 10/12 home 10/13. My husband and I just drove to Pacifica so I could

have a nice walk on the beach. I feel great, I am a little jealous of Azin and

her weight loss already, but I am not stressing about it. I went in at 273 and

came home at 280 I am assuming that this is from all the fluids they pumped into

me, I am just slow in releasing them. My stomach looks like a battle field, 5

holes with staples and I am pretty black & blue. I am a little sore on my left

side, again I'm sure this will all pass in time. I have to remember I did just

have major surgery. The support from all of you has been overwhelming, thank

you again. By the way has anyone ever spoke to a Candy Benson, she had the

surgery the same day and I can't find her on any of my " Angel Lists " . I'd like

to drop her a line.

Thanks, Marita
