SUZEQSEVEN
Put a zipper in it.
Aug 14, 2009
They might as well place a zipper in me while they're there in surgery. I've got the vertical c-section scar and the vertical open heart surgery scar; this open RNY scar will complete the "total look". I wonder how straight the whole line will be......oh well, it's got to be better than this fat belly! I'm not doing this for my looks, anyway. I'm doing it becauseI have diabetes, high blood pressure, heart failure and worst of all, I can barely walk without a cart in front of me. I get along fine in my house, because it's small and I don't have to walk far..... but I want to walk so I can do some better exercising.....right now I use a weighted wheel for my upper and lower body for 1/2 hour every day, like they taught me in cardiac rehab....... but I need more exercise and I need to get out of the house! Maybe in another 6 weeks or so I'll be able to start the walking. I used to love walking when I was younger!Now that everything is actually "coming together" and my surgery seems to be a reality, I am making plans and lists and getting excited!
I have a ride to both my pre-surgical appointments and the actual day of the surgery. Thank god for family. I wouldn't be able to do this without them. I have a 15 year old car and my surgery is an hour away..... on top of that, the route we need to take is one of the busiest roads in massachusetts and I've only driven it once in my entire life! If you've ever heard horror stories about massachusetts drivers... I'm telling you, it's no exaggeration..... and I'm scared to death to drive that road!
