Well went into surgery at 8:30 am and woke up on Tuesday at 7 AM with a ventilator ?  straight up panic mode gagging and everything unmanageable!  But I got it out that day Thank you God praises is all his.  Well what happened was when I went under everything went fine surgery a big success but when I was coming out of anathesia and they pulled the vent my lung filled up with fluid in part of my kidney disease and sleep apnea.  At first they thought it was my heart but my husband told them there is nothing wrong with her heart!  I did have some the best dr's in the world if you ask me!  I had a heart dr  a pulmonary dr, and internal medicine dr checking on me 2 or 3 times a day!  Then the nurses amazing! They helped me to keep calm and and told me everything I needed to do to get out of the hospital!  Now back to the sleeve I have been do really good on liquids and everything is going great protein vitamins medicine not one problem!  I am so amazed and so thankful!  Just praying for a quick recovery and it looks like I am on my way!

Wow you poor thing!  Thankfully that's behind you and know you're on your way!  Sounds like sleeve-wise you're doing great.  I'm a day behind you so I'm counting on you to pave the way!
