Hey Centex North & South , I won't be able to do any riding this weekend due to the fact that Lisa is going in for Bariatric Stomach surgery Wed. 7/6 /11 at three , there was a last minute cancelation and they called tues. to let her know about the schedule change ..... she will probably be coming home on Friday sometime , so I'll need to be close to home and be her Male Nurse for a while  .... I'll let you guys know on how she's doing .... I'm guessing she will be sore for a couple of weeks , hey she's a real trooper  .... Thanks the Geezer  |

If ya' wanna talk about it, I was my spousal unit's helper and nurse after her RNY Gastric Bypass about 4 years ago... Stock up on broths now btw, you'll be serving a lotta broth that first week! Good luck, and the changes will be dramatic! Here's a before:  And an after:  |

Hey you all , thanks Sooooo much for all the kind words and good wishes for Lisa  ... I have never seen so much Beautiful Human Qualities and concern amongst folks like with the VRCC family , you all are the the greatest from where I'm sitting ... Lisa came out well with no complications , no runs , no hits , and no errors .... she finally got out of recovery around 7:30 last nite and I stayed and watched her sleep til about 9:00 ish , I had to get home to tend to our extended family our 5 Weenier Dogs and feed them ..... she is feeling a litle sore but doing good , they had her up and walking later that nite for her bathroom breaks ..... this morning she is wide -eyed and bushy tailed but still sore which is to be expected  .... And as Luck would have it , today July 7 is Mrs. Geezer's Birthday so I will SURprise my little trooper with some Baloons , flowers and a mushy card I guess and a big Kiss and whisper alot sweet nuthins in her ear  ... Again thank you all for kindness and I will pass on all the well wishes to Lisa from our VRCC family , she should be coming home on Friday sometime to do alot of walking and R & R for the next few weeks  and she has stocked up on alot of Chicken Broth and other liquids for her to sip on  ... Thanks the Geezer |

Geezer. Thanks for your posts. It's good to listen to a man so totally in love with his wife. There's just not enough of that level of dedication in the world. (IMHO) It's refreshing to witness it.
Hope Mrs. Geezer continues to do well. I'm sure she's in good hands, and will be well taken care of when she get to go home.

Hey Serk , next time it will be my turn , because I had the Gastrplasty done back in around 1995 with the band and stomach stappling and by the way your pictures reminded me of how I looked after a while after my surgery , looking good Serk .... I went from 427 lbs. with a 57 inch waist down to 165 lbs. and a 34 inch waist , I guess over a 10 yrs period ... but the band was the headache and is still causing me problems , so I'll be seeing Lisa's Dr. about how to correct that old procedure .... the band that they had put was and is eroding thru and causing alot of scaring and and the opening into my stomach at that time had narrowed down to the diameter of a pencil ..... so I was bascily starving myself , it made it very difficult to eat and swallow anything I ate ... so maybe when I'm out for the Christmas holidays from school , I may take that leap and get- er- done .... Sooooo we'll see , got time to decide when .... anyway I've yaked enuf ... Thanks the Geezer |

Yeah, from the spousal unit's research before her procedure, it looked like the bands have a very high 5-10 year failure rate, that's why she chose RNY Gastric Bypass for herself...
Good luck! I probably should look into doing it myself, just don't think I'm up to it, at least not yet...
