Hi Martie. I wanted to wish you the best on your banding/gallbladder removal tomorrow. Just stay focused and positive with your thinking and you will do just fine! Rememeber to keep moving for we don't want blood clots!! I am sorry to hear your family, especially your husband, won't be allowed to see you for the seven days, really the pits, but all in all, this is for your own health. Just hang in there and you will be back home soon, posting once again! (((((HUGS))))
