Worked my last shift!

I just finished my last shift of work today before my sleeve on Wednesday.  I am relieved and ready to focus on ME for the next 8 weeks!  My doc told me I needed 6 weeks but I took another 2 off just because! 

Getting excited!

You are worth that extra two weeks and so much more!  Take this time to make it all about you....it's so worth it!

Enjoy your journey!

Thank you for the good work that you do in taking care of everyone else.......nurses are so unappreciated, especially ER nurses!

Good plan you will be tired for awhile. At home you can at least pace yourself. I took almost 7 weeks and it was a smart thing. You have time to find foods and figure out what works best. Good luck and take care of yourself.

I remember my last shift, L&D here, it was so so long!!! I took 4 weeks but I was out of time so.  Enjoy the time off and enjoy your sleeve!

And you've got several days to prepare yourself for it.  You deserve this time, and when you go back and you're going to feel like a million dollars!

wow....getting close!

you will be sleeved before you know it..I am looking forward to hearing all about your experience and following your progress

Awesome!!! Good luck to you. I'm am getting layed off at the end of June and having surgery July 9th. I'm grateful for unemployment and an awesome severance package. I'm taking the summer and most of the fall off. I've gotta heal from a back surgery and VSG. Keep us posted. I wish you luck on your journey

 Good for you!Former ER person here now a Risk Manager RN but still took a month off. Good luck you will love your sleeve! You will feel so much better during your shift s/p sleeve!!
