Michelle, if you didn't regret the surgery or want it reversed in the first few days or even weeks you wouldn't be normal! After all you went through to have this surgery, give it a chance. Wait 4 months and then if you still want it reversed, go for it. I'm a year post op now and so very happy with my life and my decision to have the surgery. Hang in there, it gets better!

Michelle, I do not know what you are going thru and even when I have the surgery on 5/1 I will not know exactly what is happening with you. I do know why you had it done.. I want to tell you something that happened to me today. I was in the grocery store with my husband getting things I will need for after the op. I had just gone thru the register, again, with my husband. He was paying for the groceries and I had gone to the exit door. I was politely waiting for an older man to go before me, I thought it was his wife who I had just let go ahead of me. He looked at me and said "go ahead, you're bigger than I am". The woman looked at me and I looked at him like I could not believe what I had just heard. I said "thats rude". The woman looked at me and then him and said "that is awful" and then went thru the door. He followed her and he went one way and she another, they were not together afterall. As I followed him out I said to him "I am smarter than you also!" Thats when my husband showed up and the man just kept on walking out the door like nothing was happening. Needless to say, I was every emotion you could think of. Mostly though I said to myself, I am having this operation and if I do not come thru it will be alright because I am tired of this life. STAY WITH IT MICHELLE, PLEASE. Only you can decide, but I am sure the disadvantages now will be far out numbered by the advantages later. Love be with you.

Michelle is doing better. YEAH!!! They started letting her have some juices and some broth. She is so happy. The Doctor also pulled her drainage tube out half way and tomorrow all the way. Yeah!! Her "real" birthday is right around the corner--what a b-day present!

:(----The leak test could not be performed because her esphogus(sorry about spelling) was too swallon. They are going to try later today. Michelle said even the dye tested soooo bad she was just so glad to have something in her mouth. Let's start saying lots of prayers....thanks to everyone

I saw Michelle tonight. She's getting really down. The Doctor stopped her from having ice chips. She's not allowed to have anything at all. She's going to have a leak test today. Please keep your fingers crossed. If it shows no leaks she gets to try some jello. Yeah! She did start going to the bathroom on her own. She has been using her pain pump as much. The nurse told her that she really needed to so that her muscles can regroup. She's a trooper she'll make it! I'm going to wash her hair for her today. Hopefully, it'll make her feel better.....keep your prayers coming...PLEASE!!!!!!

I saw Michelle tonight. She's in some pain and her mouth is real dry. She wants to go to the bathroom not in a bag. She's so hard headed. God love her! She'll be able to do that tomorrow. She got up and walked a bit. It hurt her. But it is so much better for her to move now than later. She was able to push herself up on her bed. I was so proud. She is so lucky. Tony finally went home at 10:30. Please continue all of your support....
