Last night at 8pm I was able to remove my bandages and finally take a shower. The whole Laparoscopy thing is amazing, there are just three tiny incisions, one in my belly button and two others in the same vicinity. The incisions are so small that they didn’t even require stitches, and are just taped up with this breathable tape which stays on just long enough…

I still feel like I’ve been shot in the gut, but today is better than yesterday.
