Surgery date May 5th

My name is Tanya and I live in Minnesota. My surgery date is May 5th. I'm feeling tremendous excitement, but at the same time I am cherishing every moment I spend with my children. I wrote a will, that was hard to do at only 28 years old but better safe than sorry. I have a feeling things will go well and as I am a fitness buff, I am excited to have a new, lighter body to workout in. I have great support from family and friends. I feel very lucky to have this opportunity and haven't had any hassle from insurance. I am however struggling to lose the recommended weight before surgery. I know I can do it though.

Hi Tanya, Welcome to the May support Board I'm from MN too. My surgery is May 12. I'm feeling everything that you are feeling . Good Luck to us both. Jean

Jean, Thank you very much for your support. Good luck to you as well. Imagine us in our new bodies. Yeah!

Hello Tanya, My name is Claudia and I live in Brooklyn NY. I got my call today telling me that my date is 5/5/2004. I , too, an very excited and anxious at the same time. I'm really just waiting for the final ok from my HIP but the doctors do not anticipate any problems because of my medical history. I pray for you as I hope you will pray for me that we will go through this and have great success as an outcome.
