Hi Friends!!

I have been out of touch the last 2 months or so.  I was working and I am in a classroom all day so I rarely get on the computer anymore but as of 2 days ago I am unemployed again so hopefully I will be around a little more.  I just thought I would stop by and ask for a few prayers and some words of encouragement.  I am doing so well with the weight loss although I would really like to have another fill but seeing as how I have to have surgery soon the doctor wants me to wait.  Anyway I have been having some pretty terrible pain and went to the doctor only to discover I have gallstones and inflamation.  It has to come out.  Since Dr. Fowler is in Hawaii, the surgeon I have found here in Texas is going to do the surgery which makes me feel better.  I was worried that someone that had no experience with the lapband was going to try to cut me open.  I am missing all of my Hawaiian friends and the wonderful support from you all.  Anyway if anyone has any words of encouragement send them this way.  Thanks to all of you!!

Sorry you have to go through this. My thoughts will be with you... sending the aloha spirit your way!
Continued success. Please keep us advised of how you're doing.
((hugs))

 Hi Ginger,

Sending you a great big ...

We miss you so much.  Hopefully your next trip to Hawaii will be in the beginning of the month so that we can see you.  You are the best.  Good luck!
