Surgery - 29th July

So today is surgery day - D day so to speak. 
I left my last post with me near in tears with my two youngest children walking out of the hospital.

The process at the hospital is fairly quick.  I am surprised but I guess not shocked.  And I find out I am first to go into surgery - GULP!

I have my pre-admission check in and I am handed these horrible disposable undies bahahahah they're not going to fit my fat ass!  And they didn't.  So I went in BUTT naked ;)

I was laying in the bed waiting to be wheeled into surgery and I am getting nervous, sooky and quite emotional.  WTF am I doing?  Too late now, I see my surgeon, I get checked over one last time... and I am wheeled into theater.

The last thing I remember is laying on the operating table talking... next thing I know I am awake in recovery and groggy and sore... oh so sore!

I am then wheeled into my room and I doze in and out of sleep.  I get a room buddy at this stage, Alicia.  I am glad I had her :)  She made my stay so much easier and better.  We talked a lot and I think at one stage a nurse asked if I was OK with her being in the same room as me.  LOL.  The next morning waking up I realised I had this band - my life had changed.  And it was true due to swelling, I didn't feel hungry.  I probably had a coffee and a mouthful of milkshake stuff and I was full.  I was discharged at 10am and I had added Alicia on Facebook :)

I went home and rested up - the shoulder tip pain started around now.  Bloody horrible.
