OOPS..forgot. In case anyone wants to know Sue is in St. Mary's hospital. The wing is Francis 6 and her room # is 148. I don't have the direct phone number because I forgot to write it down, but I am sure you can call the general # and they could give it to you if you would like. The doctor did say it would be tonight before she could get out of the hospital, so if anyone would like to call I know she would love it! The general # is in her profile, but I will put it her as well... 507-255-5123. TJ

This is actually Sue's sister. My nameis TJ. Nice to meet you all. I know from experience that it is awesome to be able to communicate with folks that have been through the same things you have. I thank you all for the support my sister gets from you all. UPDATE- Sue went into surgery Thursday morning at 9:05 AM and came out at 11:10 AM! It was a complete success. She was able to just have laporascopy (sp?) and did not have to be cut open. Yesterday morning they did the leak test and there was absolutely no leaks. Yesterday when they moved her to a new room the nurse had to tell her to lie down for a while because she was up decorating her room and went walking with us twice! She is recovering wonderfully! And now for the wonderful God directed and He is an AWESOME GOD news--- we are going back up to Mayo (St Mary's) today to bring her home!!!!!!!! The doctor came in last night and said she was doing so great that he was putting her on thick liquids last night then pureed this morning and we could take her home tonight! She is excited and will most likely be talking to you all tonight or maybe sometime tomorrow! She was just so excited that she didn't have to miss church tomorrow! We are all excited and sooooo thankful to God that He has directed her healing and will continue to direct her healing. Again thanks for your support. TJ

Hi Sue! Big congratulations on your surgery date! I bet you are so excited! Just hang in there and try to be patient! Don’t worry if you are nervous, scared, excited or go through a thousand different emotions. This is all normal, so go with the flow! There’s really nothing you can do with all those feelings surfacing. You may start to doubt yourself and question your decision to have surgery. Just about everyone has had this happen to them. You’re making a decision to have a better quality of life and YOU deserve it!! That gut feeling or that little voice inside lets you know that you’re doing the right thing! Remember that we’re all family here and we’re ready to give you our support, lend an ear and not judge. You know you can always come here and get a dose of confidence and good will! There are lots of us who have had surgery and are in your corner rooting for you!! I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my thoughts and prayers for a successful, problem-free surgery and recovery. I’m so happy for you. Soon you will be on the other side and will join the ranks of the losers. Get ready for your life to change forever. Wishing you much success in your weight-loss journey. Hugs to you today.
