Had my Surgery May 21st Feeling Great!!!!!

Hello All , I had my Lap DS procedure on May 21st I am now 12 days post-op and doing great. my surgeon did have to do a Hand-Assisited Lap To move my spleen out of the way but I am feeling so good and eating my protein, so far have good level of energy. I was in the hosptial for 4 days everything was uneventful minimal pain really no pain other than expected soreness from the incision. I am eating eggs. steak. had spanish rice and no nausea problems. I could go on and on about how shocked I even am at how well i am doing I had a great surgeon but I have " THE GREAT PHYSICIAN" on myside I give all Glory to God for his protection and guidance of my surgical team. prayers and best wishes to all who are pre-op and post-op.

Kelly, Congrats on doing so great with your post-op life so far! Isn't it great feeling great? And yes, you are right - having Jesus leading the way makes a world of difference! The peace that comes from knowing the Prince of Peace is priceless! Sounds like you're doing great! Congratulations!

I can really relate to this. Where can we find your book?

This poem is actually in my 2nd book that is in prepublication right now. it's called The Fantasies and Realities Within, the one that is out now is more of broken heart, abuse, love for children and family and it called From Behind Steel Doors and its available by going to www.publishamerica.com and putting the title of the book in the search engine. It will also be available thru Amazon.com,and Barnes an Noble ISBN1-4241-1109-9. I'm glad you like the poem. melinda
