May is Just around the corner!!!!!

Hello to everyone!!!!!! I would like to apologize for not posting for some time. It has been very busy. Never a dull moment when you have kids. Just wanted to keep everyone up to date. My last life skills class was this week. They were very informative. I also met a lot of great people(hello to Joni, Don, Mike, Donna, Ladonna, Cynthia, and Karen). My surgery date is Mary 3rd. It will be here before you know it. I am starting to prepare. I bought some food from PMRI. My Mom recently had the surgery and she is taking me out shopping to stock me up on some last minute items. I have not posted in a while but I have read and everyone on the board is so positive. I always makes me smile when I read the messages. The last thing I have left to do is to follow up with Dr. Furey(caridologist) on 04-19-04 and to see the physician at PMRI on 04-22-04. Reality really hit me yesterday when Alexus called me from Christian Hospital and pre registered me for May 3. Thanks to everyone for their support!!!! Julie *****Joni, Good luck to you on your surgery. You have my email from the paper that was passed around from class. Please have Jenn keep us up to date on how you do.

Julie!!!!! How wonderful to see you posting again! Time sure flies doesn't it? Your day will be here before you know it! My prayers are with you! Gigee

Hey girl!!!!!! I know it has been a while. I see that things are going well for you. How are you feeling and how are things going? Thanks for the wonderful response. If you have any protein shake recipes or pureed food ideas, send them my way. Gail has hooked me up with a bunch of recipes. I am writing them down and putting them in my recipe basket. When is the next PMRI meeting on a Saturday. I would love to hang out and talk to you again? Hope all is well. Smiles!!!!! Julie

I'll be happy to share the ones I've tested and think are good lol. The next PMRI Saturday meeting is: Traveling and eating out: How to stay on track without staying home Saturday, April 16 10 - 11 am I will look for you there! Gigee

Congratulations Julie, the time will fly! Linda

Hi Gail, you name caught my attention, Eller is my maiden name. Are you related to Eller's in the area? Or in the TN, VA, NC area? My Granddad lived up here quite a while before passing. His name was Paul & was married to Hattie. My dad & mom are Paskel (Pat for short) and Fay. Good luck on your amazing journey! - Kathy V.
