I was able to come home on the afternoon of 7 July. I did have a G-Tube (I had Open RNY) and had the tube removed on 14 July. I'm doing great and am down 21 pounds (8 pounds on the pre-surgery diet and 13 since my surgery on 5 July). Thanks for all the well wishes.

Update. Maria saw the Doctor today and he is very pleased with her progress. She's up and walking around and now on oral meds. She's getting stronger by the minute. I've taken pictures so I know she will want to post them later on. Soon, I'll be able to chase her around the house again. :-) Tom

I am glad to hear that everything went well for Maria. That makes me feel better knowing my surgery is less than a month away. Best wishes to her and I hope she has a speedy recovery.

Hello everyone I'm Maria's husband Tom. Maria Just had the surgery and is doing fine. The surgery went well and she is resting as can be expected. Dr. Searles performed the Roux-en-Y procedure. Thank you all for your encouragement and support. I now know that she is on her way to a happier and healthier life. I believe this was a very smart move on her part. She is a smart girl, after all, she married me. :-) I'll update more tomorrow. Tom
