My mom had gastric bypass surgery on 9-12-08. I was there to support her. She was a bit nervous as one would expect when you are rearranging your innards for the rest of your life.
This is me, Mom and my sister before she went into surgery:
This is our rock star surgeon:
Mr. Sign, Dr. and me:
Doc and me (I was so nervous being next to him):
Anyway, my mom did great through the whole surgery process. She was a star patient and was up and walking 2.5 hours after major surgery.
I spent the night with her in the hospital so that I could help her do what she needed to do. I didn't sleep much, but it was all worth it to be there for her. She was released less than 24 hours after her surgery. She is home and doing awesomely. I can't wait to watch her progress.

I am so glad things went well for your Mom and also happy you where able to be there with her. I think you should be called Jennifer Nightingale or something.
I hope the end result of the procedure goes as well for her as it went for you. That would be wonderful and has to be so much more healthy.
And yep, that surgeon... are you sure you picked him for his ability and not for his looks?
