• Cowboy’s 4 Day Post Op Update

  Things are so much better. I got home last night after work and attended to my patient. He wanted a popsicle and some soup. I asked him to let things cool down and not consume so fast so he wouldn’t have any pain. He told me he walked around a bit and that he was just feeling uncomfortable. We took a short walk at night and I didn’t hear him in too much pain. So thankful for that. He ate some oatmeal during the day with no problems. He was seeming kind of down so I searched youtube for gastric sleeve patients and found the coolest guy. He’s from Southern California and he has kind of a cholo accent. His videos were excellent. He’s about the same height as my husband and his story was just so uplifting. I’m hoping that made Cowboy feel better about the months ahead. I found a girl to watch too, so thank you, youtube for being such a fabulous source of information. His post op appointment is tomorrow, so I’ll have an update for you guys on Friday.
