HOME! & FIRST POSTING!! YIPEE !!

EVERYONE!!!! HERE I AM FINALLY JOINING ALL YOU FRIENDLY LOSERS! I just can't believe its MY TURN to say that!! I just wanted to pop in a minute, say hello , see how everyone has been. And wanted to thank everyone for posting notes, messages, emails and keeping me in their prayers, as I danced the surgical twist with my surgeon last week. This whole week has been a roller coaster! I'm sitting here thinking, where I was (this tiime last week) , and even how far I have come since surgery. I DO have to say (with drains waiting to be removed still) that I would do it all over again, sooner, and would highly recommend my surgical team. They did an outstanding job- they've even called me twice this weekend- and the hospital support was phenomenal. Anyway - GOOD MORNING - HOW IS EVERYONE THIS LOVELY MONDAY? HUGS FROM DONNA

CONGRATULATIONS DONNA!!! So happy everything is going well so far at the start of your journey! Let me tell you, from one pre-op to a post-op like yourself, it's sooooooo very good to hear how positive you are afterwards! I'm scheduled to go in on 8/29, and my feelings are going from one end of the spectrum to the other as each day progresses. It's amazing how the mind works! I can only hope and pray that everything goes as well for me as it did you! See you on the "lighter side" soon! Take care! Wendy

Hi Donna! I was wondering where you were and someone gave me a link to this board. I am so glad to hear that you are doing well. Only 29 days until my surgery now! Woo-Hoo! Keep in touch! Erin
