Thanks everyone! I'm doing a lot better now than I was this morning. The leak test went well and now I'm sipping and walking. I'll hopefully go home on Saturday. I'd originally been told Friday, but the doctor wanted to keep me in an extra day since surgery took so long. It was actually 9 hours. I was told 10 and 7 1/2, but 9 was the "official" length. He said they were having trouble with some of the sutures and my tissue didn't want to hold it, so it took an hour and a half just to do that.
