New life has begun...

Feb 04, 2010

On January 26, 2010 at 7:30 in the morning i was wheeled to the operating room and on my way to my new life beginning. Surgery took just about 4 hours and i was brought to the recovery room around 11:30 and was there until a little after 4pm because my oxygen level kept dipping down into the 80's. After being in my room i was up and walking at 6:30 that night with my IV and Oxygen tank. I was on oxygen all night and ask the nurse around 10am if i could try to come off and she let me and had me walk the halls checking my O2 levels along the way and everything had finally leveled off to normal. Oh by the way Dr. Papasavas was able to do my surgery laparoscopically so i have 6 small incisions. I was thrilled when i found that out. So Wednesday went well and Thursday afternoon i was able to go home after they took the drain out. I will update more after i have my post op on Feb. 8th...
