On the Road Again ...

Just wanted to give an update of sorts.I had my scope done yesterday. It was really easy & I kind of treated it as a dry run for surgery since anesthesia seems to cause the most problems for people. I handled the propofyl (?) very easily & the whole thing was a lot less scary then when I was knocked out using gas as a kid. My procedure was scheduled for 9:30 am & I would say I was in lala land by 9:45 then woke up in recovery at 10 on the dot. Dr. Hoddinott found signs of GERD but that was totally expected. He did 2 biopsies of my stomach & said everything looked good.
Madaline submitted my info to insurance on Aug 3rd so now we wait to hear back from them so I can get my surgery scheduled. I am going to wait (even if it kills me) until Monday to see if she has heard anything back. I REALLY need to have surgery next week so I can have the drain removed prior to starting class on the 28th. It won't be the end of the world if I have to go w/a drain but seriously, who wants a tube hanging out of your gut when you are walkin the halls with a bunch of fresh faced freshmen?
A nice lil victory I won w/my daughter today is that she is FINALLY willing to eat those lil pouches of fruit puree. I have tried a couple different pouches about every 6 mths & today she finally took to them. She thinks they are a treat & I gave it to her when she started asking for ice cream (I don't let her have the junk but living with grandma it happens). I am really trying to keep her from being an overweight kid so score 1 for momma!
