Yesterday I was 5 yrs since I had my surgery.  I lost alot of  weight but I had lots of complications.  I still today i have complications.  My body isn't taking in the vitamins. I have had 4 blood transfusions in Feb. of this past year.  they monitor my blood levels monthly.  I have to go get shots monthly.  I look so forward to those!!!!!!!!!  NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I have good days and i have bad days just like everyone else.  I should up load my pic I have of me now.  If you are every in carroll, ia I am in the fitting room answering phones and paging people.  I use to love my job but now it is kind of boring........Since this surgery I have met this really awesome guy we have been together for 11 months now.  We live together in Wall Lake.  We have his kids every weekend and i have my kids all the time.  Jake my son had emergancy surgery in June and since then he has lost 45 lbs on his own.  I am so proud of him.  He has a girlfriend now.  Cant believe he will be 16 in Feb.  My daughter Emily is boy crazy bad time. She has become very active in school which i am very happy for her.  Well I need to get ready to go to work.  Talk to you all later on.   Lynda

Congratulations, Lynda! I remember seeing your posts on the board four years ago when I first moved to Iowa. Wow, this board was a lot busier back then, wasn't it? Glad to hear you're doing well....keep up the good work!

Lynda,
I also remember you on the boards from 5 years ago. I had my 5 year anniversary this year as well. The board was way busier then, than it is now.

I have had some complications as well. Glad to hear that you are doing well and have found someone special. :)

Take care,

Stephanie
