If you are in the hospital that is good I'm praying over you right now that you don't have anymore difficulties and that you recover quickly also that you continue your weighloss until you are to goal without further problems.

Your start sounds much like mine. I have now worked through most of my complications and I can tell you that if you follow your team's plans, this will seem like a distant memory in no time. Positive thoughts your way.
