April Fool's Day

I, finally got my surgery date. April 1, 2004 at 11:30am!! I can't begin to tell you how happy I am. I am going to have a hand assisted/lap DS at the University of Chicago. Dr. Alverdy is going to give me my life back. I can't wait!! Y'all pray for me and I'll meet you on the other side. We can be BIG losers together.

Richard, What a neat date to have your surgery on! That way you can "fool" all of your weight in to believing it was never there to begin with!! So for you and I hope your waiting time flies by. Keep in touch. Love and Light Jeana

That's my date too!! I am so excited for us all! Our new lives will be beginning before we know it. (My surgery is in 59 days, 13 hours and 48 minutes - but who's counting? LOL!) Best of luck to you and all of us who will be surgery twins! Be sure, that when I am being rolled into surgery I will feel comforted by the fact that there will be so many of us wiill be starting over "together." You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. ~LaraKatya

Congratulations Richard! We share the same date. Best wishes for an uneventful surgery and recovery
