Hey everybody I'M SLEEVED!!!!!
Ok so, my husband and I went to St Agnes @ 845am on the 7th of june and when we got there they took me in the back to get prep for surgery. I wasnt even scared or nervous at all. I was however terrified of the IV, that mess hurt!!!!!! They had to stick me 3x (they couldnt find the vein). When they finally got the IV in, they sd they were gonna give me a cocktail (somethin to relax me) I asked them to give me a double shot! LOL. So they gave me the cocktail and carried me to the operating room, and the next thing I remembered was waking up saying something stinks. LOL I was very sore and had cotton mouth for real. I felt like someone had kicked me in my stomach! They had given me a medicine pump that I could push whenever I was in pain (that was my best friend). So on the 1st day I slept and walked. they wouldnt let me drink anything yet, but they definately make u walk right away. It helps with the gas and soreness. I really had lotsa gass in the belly (they sd it was normal) . Well today, the 8th I had to take an xray to see if there were any leaks from the surgery (there were none) . I had to drink this stuff, (it was disgusting) so they could see it through the xray machine as it went down the throat to my stomach again lookin for leaks (there were none). Now I was able to have clear liquids, drank some ice water, that hurt! Had to drink it at room temp. I was kinda scared to drink anything cause I didnt want to over do it you know? Im home now, and i can get around pretty good. Still very sore though. I thank the Lord for a great husband! He was there every step of the way!!!! He never left my side!! Ladies (not meaning to sound vulgar) I got my period on the 6th and my husband even changed my pads for me and wiped and washed me as well! I love my husband, he's a great man! He's having the same surgery on July 5, 2011, and I will be right there for him!!! I'm on the losers bench ya'll!!! I'm so excited! 
Dr David von Rueden @ St Agnes Hospital is the greatest! I'll keep you guys posted on my journey , and those of u who are on your way to surgery, I'll see u on the loosers bench soon, SMOOOOOCHES!
