HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone! I am home from the hospital & had to come on and say hello and THANK YOU to EVERYONE! I Thank you all for your warm & well wishes, I have noticed that I have more in my mailbox, but I have not checked them all yet. I am a little sore, the meds that they gave me when I came out of surgery didn't work and I was in excrusiating pain for an hour, then they gave me dilotted and I have had very, very little pain, and really not much gas pain; except for when it gets into the top of my chest and sits there for a few seconds. The hospital stay was good, the only thing that I wish that I had,had was a STEP STOOL so that it would be eaiser to get in & out of the bed since it didn't go down low enough to get on it comfortably. But a step stoll is something that I would tell anyone to take with them.

Welcome to the losers side Kim! I remember my first day in the hospital. They made me get up and walk only a few hours out of surgery... and use that spirometer...that was the worst. It got better though. I didn't really have any gas pains either. My experience at Centennial was great. Keep us posted on how you're doing! april

Kim, so glad to know all is going well. You will be so happy w/ the outcome. Please keep us posted on how you are doing. Sara.

Hello Kimmy! So glad we got to meet face to face. I meant to stop by your room yesterday morning before I left for home but once the ball started rolling, things were pretty busy. Were you discharge today? I totally agree w/you on the step stool. That was something I'd encountered when I had c-sections with our two kids and don't know why I didn't remmeber that being a problem. My dh offered the tops of his feet for me to push on but that just didn't feel secure although I appreciated the sweet offer. So nice to meet your dh, mom and two little ones (who are all adorable). Glad to hear you're feeling better now. I've had a small challenge today in getting all my liquids in. I'm still not there yet for the day but will keep trying. When do you go back for your followup? I go back next Friday. Can't wait!!!! We absolutely HAVE to keep in touch, girl, okay? Keep me posted! And big hugs to you!!! Bonita
