Incision

My apologies if this is too graphic. The incision is about 13" long plus the jog around my belly button. They used 40 metal staples. Looks like someone stopped at the hardware store before the surgery. They are really long and heavy gauge. One doctor called it a "trophy scar". Every doctor and nurse that examined me commented on it. But they were also quick to comment that it appeared to be healing really well. No ab crunches for awhile.
