Dear Splendalicious! Thank you so much! Keep up the great work as well! All the best on your continued success! God Bless! MaryJo

MaryJo: Congratulations on your anniversary. It really is amazing all the things that are possible when you're healthy, isn't it? This past October was 2 years for me, and I NEVER would've guessed the changes that have taken place in my life since and because of this incredible surgery. I, like all the rest of us, am very blessed. I'm thankful for the friends that have sttod beside me throughout this journey. Thankful for the new people that I have met through OH. And thankful for all of the new things that I have been able to accomplish and the rest of what I look forward to doing. Happy Anniversary to you, Congratulations on ALL your successes and good luck in all the new goals that you've set for yourself. You'll do well and will continue to be an inspiration to the rest of the CT board. You're welcome at our support group meetings, no need to sneak in!! All the best, Love, Bob

Hi Bob! Thank you so much! You ARE an inspiration as well! I am glad i have a plastic surgery buddy to compare notes with! If you don't make it to the spring gala, I am definitley going to track you down at one of your support groups so I can give you a HUGE hug! Thanks again ! You are such a sweetheart! God Bless! Love, MaryJo

Dearest MaryJo-- First off, congrats on reaching your two year mark (and your personal goal!). Look how far you've come! You have completely transformed yourself, that butterfly is finally able to emerge from it's cucoon. Always remember EVERYTHING that you've accomplished in the last two years. Every struggle, every tribulation, and every challenge you've faced... and you've overcome it all! Never forget that you are a blessed, strong, beautiful woman, and there's nothing that you can't accomplish when you put your heart, soul, and mind to it. Follow your heart, and nothing else... and all will be well in the end. You are an amazing person, and I'm so thankful to call you a friend. Here's to everything you've accomplished so far, and everything you have yet to take on in the future!!!! --CJ
