BandDiva Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 Hey everyone!! Thanks for all the well wishes for all of us. We are doing great. ALTHOUGH, I had to weight all day and started really freaking out that all my friends were behind closed doors. There I was still sitting in the lobbysmelling the aroma of coffee.....boy was that tough! lol Seems like all of us are saying the same thing, hard to get out of bed because of the port being so sore. But other than that we are good to go! We all had a goodnights sleep. We will be heading over to the Lucerana in a bit! :girl_dance: CONGRATS TO THE 10/10 BANDSTERS :[/b]:girl_dance:

julieburns Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 :lb10: I'm glad you're doing well and have just a little discomfort. I am so happy for you Dana. Have a safe flight home!!
doinitagann Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 i was told not to take baths. But anyway, glad to hear you are doing good and on the other side. Take it easy, do not rush your recovery. some days may be harder than others. Take it one day at a time and listen to your body when it tells you to slow down. We are all here for you!!!!!
Guest CaraMBA09 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 yes, the port side is very tender. gas hasn't been too bad. Just some in the center of my chest & it hits every now and then. went shopping on revolution today. Got in plenty of walking, now I am taking a bath. Going to chillout and watch tv.

There are specific instructions no baths for a few weeks!! LOL, I am sorry to worry yall! I took a shower. I think I have a habit of just saying "gonna take a bath" when I am bathing of some sort. But no, I did hear him say wait 3 weeks for a bath so all it good. )
UTdigiMOM Posted October 14, 2008 Report Posted October 14, 2008 Thanks for posting this Dana!! I haven't felt like sitting at my computer until today. The surgery was so easy and the facility is clean and beautiful. Love Dr. Ortiz and his staff. I'm on the liquid diet now and it really isn't that bad. I collected the email addresses of all 9 of us banded that day and just sent out an email today. Hope to hear from everyone to see how they're doing. Thanks for all the good wishes.
