Topic: RE: Finally got my date! 8/31/09
That's my date too I haven't heard about protein drinks or vitamins yet. I have testing tomorrow & then I meet with my surgeon. Maybe that's when I'll find out about the "after life".
Topic: RE: Let's Come Together...Prayer For August Surgeries
Thank you Ms. Ronnie. You thoughtful prayers are appreciated and welcomed. My RNY is set for the 28th and I know at this time you have already had your surgery. I hope all things are going well for you, and the Lord blesses you greatly and the Holy Angels watch over and help you with inspirations.

Topic: TO Share Or NOT to share.... that is the question
I am very undecided what I am going to say or do about sharing that I had surgery. Of course all those close to me know, but when I go back to school ( I am in nursing school) and face my classmate whom I have spent wayyyy to many hours with what I am going to say as they notice.
I want to share because it is easier then lying, and I think some will be very supportive, some will say nothing and only a few will chatter behind my back (don't care for them anyhow... I am 38 not 18) but then part of me is ashamed I needed this, but understand fully I NEEDED THIS. NO OTHER CHOICE was right for me.
Thoughts????

Thanks Mona, I"ve been a diabetic forever and I tend to take control as soon as I am alert and am bringing my own stuff including stuff in case I go too low and I can be very vocal if I need be, I've not survived for over 47 years by being a lamb so I know I will be fine but thanks for the encouragement! The prep was the hard part, now if I can get some sleep tonight, will write to everyone when I get back home again, hope by the weekend.

Hey Debbie,
Thanks for the reply, my sittin place is quite sore but I am holding up ok, a bit hungry as I'm sure you are. That mag citrate is the worst bowel prep I have ever taken!
I will keep you in my prayers.

Good luck tomorrow I will be hopefully about done by the time you go in so lets get through this and make progress together!
We can do it!!!!!
Hugs and Prayers
