Title: Re: Prayers for Rick (NEPAS) having health issues
Post by: nepas on March 19, 2015, 04:32:37 PM: Thank you everyone for the well wishes.

I had a great surgeon and very concerned with my health. I was supposed to be released yesterday but he wanted to watch me for another 24 hours. My lapband was 60% eroded into my upper stomach. He said he see's 1-2 of these a year but not as bad as mine. Only restriction i have is no heavy lifting and still on liquids for another week. So since not having any pain med since yesterday we will be heading to Ft Peirce FL tomorrow.

Thanks again everyone, My extended family
