Hi

Hi everybody I'm having an anxiety attack. Can't believe what's happened. I took my cousin's son to Walmart, and on the way out he got grabbed by the security. He had taken 4 CDs, to the restroom, and lit the clear plastic off of them, and put the cases in the wrapper inside the tank of the toilet. I thought I was in big trouble. I don't need this. I felt it was my fault, but the manager said it was not my fault, and that he was going to be banned from all Walmarts. He is still planning on going back to Colorado tomorrow. He came for his first visit. He's not even from here. He is from Trinidad Tobago, and he is working on getting his citizenship, so I don't know what's going to happen. Sorry, this wasn't the place to write. But I also wanted to tell everbody, that I am still having problems drinking water, cold or lukewarm, and was wondering if there was another way to get my water in. I gag on water for some reason. But I know I need to drink water. And I'm also starting to get scared for Monday, I go in for my hysterectomy. So please send me prayers. I appreciate it. Take Care Love Lisa Young PS By the way, I have walked and walked and walked this weekend. And feel great!!!

LISA It was DEFINITELY NOT YOUR FAULT!!!!! NO WAY WAS IT YOUR FAULT~! he is doing a very good job of getting citizenship if he is sstealing, period! Just please forget about it, make sure your cousin knows about and get on with your life, dont do things like that again! I am sorry you are getting scared for your hysterectomy, But I know how you feel, closing on My first house on wednesday, scaread about that, got college starting the next monday, and moving in between and working non stop about your water, I dont really know just drink crystal light or other sugar free things... best you can do! Hugs and love to you Lisa, good luck and keep us updated on your surgery! Judi

Oh my goodness, Lisa, I think that I would be a bit anxious, too and a lot ticked off! Be sure to let your cousin know that you do NOT appreciate the position that he put you in! About the fluids, continue to try the water and different temps. Have you tried putting some lemon in it? I just love it that way. Also, drink some of those s/f drinks if you can't tolerate water, just be sure to get your fluids in. Great job on the walking! It feels great to be getting fit, doesn't it? Prayers going out your way for Monday. Hope that it won't be too hard on you. Hang in there, hon! God bless, Andrea

Lisa, I know family is important and you love them. But you need to focus on you and getting you healthy. I hurt when I drink anything cold through a straw. I have to drink it out of the glass and take sips. I can get about 4 sips in before I hurt. About your hyster. Being scared is normal. I would be too. But don't be afraid. Anesthesia will go better, surgery will go better, and recovery will go better if you relax. Where would you like to go on the world's greatest vacation? What would you do? Who would you go with? Now when you get to the hospital. Tell the anesthesia person you would like something to take the edge off before you go back. Now as they are giving you something remember your dream vacation, take some long slow deep breaths and go to that place dream that dream. Next thing you know it will be all over and you will be in your room. When I had my surgery done - I was in Itly and there was this beautiful man standing there with a bottle of wine in his hands with some beautiful flowers all around him. It was a beautiful dream... I don't remember any of it cuz the drugs were really good. I will lift you up to our Father in Heaven that he will be with you, your family, the surgeon, the anesthesia person, and the staff. May their hearts, minds, souls, and hands be his. Take care honey, let us know how you are doing. Hugs from Heaven Melinda
