I just got off the phone with Susan's sister. She was in recovery, so she hasn't talked to her. The surgeon said everything went well. Welcome, Susan, to the Dark Side.
Hi, guys! I'm doing good I think. Been walking and am now anxiously awaiting them to give me the blu dye test so I can get IV out and start sipping. I've belched some and tooted some air out on the toilet this morning. I'm sore but pain has been bearable and no nausea at all. So far I'm very pleased with the hospital and doctors here. Dr Esquerra said I had lots of scar tissue/adhesions which he just had to go very slowly which turned into between 5 and 6 hours. He's a very nice person. My sister has been pleased with the cafeteria food so that is good.
