Fresh out the oven sleever here!
Had surgery yesterday morning, piece of cake! For those of you approaching surgery soon, if you're nervous about the procedure itself, don't be! I had some pain/nausea/discomfort yesterday, but nothing earth shattering. I started sipping water a few hours out w just some mild pain when the sip hit my stomach, but that has improved greatly already. I found today that I can tolerate broth and SF carnation instant breakfast better than plain water and I ahve no problem getting 6oz of broth in per hour. Anyway I just wanted to share that I made it and maybe put some nervous minds at ease! You got this! Also thank you all for all the awesome support that got me and so many others through this ♡
