Hi Everyone! I have been lurking the IL board the last few days... So i decided it was time to say hello! My name is Bridget, I am 23 live in Chicago, I am scheduled for RNY at Evanston Hospital on 8/8/05... I am really excited but nervous too... I find myself on OH all day, reading about people experiences and finding out more information... I just can't learn enough! I hope you are all doing well! Enjoy this rainy day! Bridget
