Guest guest Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 Wow Kev, you made it! Welcome to the other side:-) So glad to hear that you're not in a lot of pain. How many nights were you in the hopistal for? I totally understand your hatred for hospitals. i just feel sick to the stomach going into one. Oh and are you banded or wired shut? Keep breathing and keep up the positive attitude!

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 I am glad to hear you are doing well. My surgery is Wednesday, and it is good to hear that your experience has not been horrible. It gives me hope that mine won't be so bad. > > Let me sart off by sayng that I officially Hate Hospitals. > > there, now that it is out of the wayI finaly made it home after upper and lower surgery on wednesday.
