I'm home!

So I got home yesterday. The surgery went well. Dr. Warnock said that I was a model patient. Haha. I am still pretty sore when I get up and walk around so I hope this goes away soon. I am so happy that its over with. I can't believe I actually did it. Its so weird. The worst part of the whole thing was that NO ONE (including 2 anesthesiologists) could find a vein to start an IV...so they stuck me 8 FREAKIN TIMES. Yeah my arms are pretty bruised up but I am ok. Its hurt sooooo bad....then my dad saw me crying so he teared up and left the room, then my mom and sister started crying....so emotional. And I have been really emotional since the surgery. I guess thats normal though. After surgery there were about 20 of my dearest friends are family members waiting for me. And going through this, I realized how lucky I am. I don't really remember anything from Monday....at all.....I was severely drugged up but I have been told that I was very lovey dovey and touchy feely....haha thats not me at all so I was surprised. But I made everyone laugh so thats good. My mom and Brian really took/take care of me. She comes over during the day and then Brian has night duty. Of course mom has been doing a great job job but I am really pleasantly surprised by Brian. He hasn't even complained once...even when I wake him up 4 times a night to help me go to the bathroom. Haha. He just does it with a smile on his face. So it hasn't been bad at all. I go Saturday to get the rest of my staples taken out and I will have them weigh me and update everyone. I lost 21 pounds on my pre-op diet. YAY! So anyways, tomorow I can have oatmeal and saltines and Saturday I can have peanut butter and cheese. So even though the thought of food makes me sick right now, if I have to eat something, that stuff aint too bad. Well I guess I better get ready for bed....big day of breathing exercizes and Dr. Phil tomorrow. : )
