Miss Carolyn is a lovely 71 year old lady from Forest, MS, who has been attempting to have WLS, but is hearing now that due to medical conditions and age, it may not be a possiblity for her. She is very discouraged and upset. She does not have a computer and will not be able to respond, but I wanted her to know that people from all over the country were praying for her. Please go by her page and give her some love and support. I will print it out and get it to her. Thank you so much! And please remember her in your prayers. Thanks a bazillion.

Greetings,

To all of you who were so loving to us when we posted our proposal I thought it only fitting that we should follow-up with our wedding day plans.

We plan to be married aboard the Princess Cruise to Alaska. July 31st. The date has special meaning to us both as that is Cheryl's Birthday and my 3 year Anniversary of my RNY surgery. How fitting for us to dedicate our lives to each other on such a special day.

A few persons have asked us about registry information etc. In accordance with the MTOS we will not post our registry informaiton on the boards however, if you wish we will be glad to answer you in email.

Thank you so much for being a part of our special day.

P.S. Thank you Cheryl for saying yes! I wasn't nervous...[NOT]

Sincerely,

Bo McCoy

P.S.S. Should we serve Cheesecake at our reception? [That was for anyone who has ever been to an event!]

Hi Jen, So you're moving near the ID/OR border ... Parma, Payette, or where just curious. I grew up in Parma and my best friend teaches in Payette. I live in Nampa. I'd really recommend Dr. Christian Oakley in Boise. I was very impressed with him when we had the initial meeting. I'm still trying to get insurance approval. Mine at work has an exclusion and my husbands does too but they are trying to get it to approve it anyways. I need lots of prayers for that to happen. Good luck. Dianna

Hi Idaho Board! I was just beginning my journey here when we discovered we were moving...around the ID/OR border...now, I had some time here finding a Doc. willing to refer me for WLS, finally, now that I found one, we will be moving...argh! I was wondering if anyone out there would have advice for where to look...I don't even know what kind of INS. we'll have once we get there...I just was curious as to how hard it is in Id to have the procedure done, I definately qualify...any advice..I'd greatly appreciate it...have a great day! Jen.

I had my lapband done on 3-7-05. I had no pain and feel wonderful. I am was down 15 pounds as of 3-19-05 (not to shabby). Had to go shopping today to buy some pants that fit. Regular size 18, thats a start. Just had to share.
