I notice a big change today. Day 5 he felt great, day 6 not so much, day 7 so-so, but today is another great day. He's spent a good portion of time visiting with family and friends and that is so reviving to the soul. These past days he's mostly felt like sitting around, not much energy. Today he's more energetic and even making plans to get some exercise by walking around the city lake. An activity he would never have mentioned before! He's lost all the extra weight the surgery caused, plus an addition 12lbs. Today he weighed in at 422lbs. I can see some change in his shoulder/collar bone area, and in his legs. He's become more accepting of his new schedule of consuming liquids and such. We aren't as overwhelmed now, and he finally had his first bowel movement at 7 days post-op. I'm starting to glimps a little light at the end of the tunnel.
