Sorry it's been so long! I've been so busy with just life stuff and school...which is pretty much going horribly at the moment...ugh! Anyways, I feel like I start to feel better and then the next day I feel like crap again or I'll have a few really good days in a row and then feel like I've been hit by a freight train...I'm hoping I'll level out here some time soon!! You can't really tell in the pics but I'm really starting to swell and it's super uncomfortable.

My doctor is beyond amazing and his staff are just absolutely perfect! He spent so much time with me during my consult and my pre op appointment. He was on time for surgery and took his time doing all his markings. His staff made sure I was comfortable the entire time. He owns his own practice and his own surgery center so I was the only patient there that day. For my first post op appointment I got there super early because we had to take my daughter to school and then just headed over there. He got me in early and made sure I was comfortable. He even makes himself available 24/7 for any questions or concerns.

depression...

So the days were rolling by and I was feeling so awesome, then like a ton of bricks it all came crashing down. My depression is so debilitating I can barely even function at this point. I'm so exhausted constantly and just want to sleep and lay on the couch all day. I think tomorrow I'll be going back to stay at my moms for a few days so she can help me out and let me rest and recover more.

Thank you to everyone for the support and such kind words about my progress. Coming on here and seeing all of that really did help.

Dear drain...I will not miss you...

I finally lost my drain today and it feels so good to have that thing gone! He also took the stitches out of my belly button too and it looks like it's going to heal very well. He wants to see me back on Wednesday to make sure I'm not swelling too bad and pull any sutures that are coming through the incision line.
