Tonigh were the final auditions for the Eagles Cheerleaders, a close friends daughter (I consider her my niece) was trying out, she made it onto the squad last year, but you still have to try out each year. So I went with the whole family. I was really nervous, because, one, having to walk, being that it was in center city, parking would not be close by the theatre at University of Penn; and I was worried I wouldn't be able to keep up with everyone; and two, about fitting into those tiny theatre seats. Well, we parked about a block and a half away; and although I didn't walk as fast as everyone, I was able to keep up, and didn't get out of breath!!! Then, there were steps, and I was like, oh gosh, here we go, I'm going to pass out doing those steps - Nope! Did them!! Then, the dreaded moment came... going to our seats... I said I'd sit on the end, still scared to death inside about fitting in the chair. I sat, and was like, oh my gosh, I fit, I fit! I was bursting inside with emotion! My arms even were able to rest on the arms of the chair - I was able to sit all the way back in the chair, comfortably, no fat was rolling over the sides! Finally, I looked over at Vicky and her sisters, and showed them my excitement, and they knew right away what I was trying to show them, and I got so emotional, my eyes filled up. I called Traci right away to tell her. I couldn't believe it. last year, I didn't go to the auditions because I knew I would never be able to fit into seats like that, or be able to walk much.

Michelle, What a moment. I am so happy for you. It's times like this that keep us on the right path because we continue to achieve goals that we would have never have experienced without going through the surgery. My hats off to you and wish you many more accomplishments. Susan
