Jamie, congratulations on your upcoming surgery next week!!! Your profile caught my attention because I used to live in Seminole and spent a lot of time in Pinellas Park! I graduated high school from Dixie Hollins. And, my surgery date was 10/13 of last year!!! I wish you the very best! I know the pre op diet is rough, but it will all be worth it believe me. This surgery is the most amazing thing I've ever done in my life. I'll be thinking of you on the 13th and pray that you have an uneventful surgery, a smooth recovery and a most amazing journey! Just follow your doctor's orders and everything will be fine. Keep positive thoughts at all times and always have faith in yourself. Keep us posted too! Don't forget we are always here! Much love from Miami, Jeanne :)
