On April 2, 2009 I had gastric bypass surgery. While I had been planning the surgery for well over a year, the initial date I was given was late summer (July/August). Then, the week Scott was scheduled to return from Iraq, the surgeon's office called and said they had a cancellation and could get me in in just 10 days. Even though we knew it would make the homecoming transition even more chaotic, we decided to take the early date. One benefit to doing it early was that since Scott was still technically on active duty (he earned about three weeks of leave that was tacked on to the end of the deployment), our secondary insurace through the military covered deductables. Another benefit was that Daddy was home to care for, lift, hold, and cuddle Gianna while mommy recovered.
