WOW Judy, that is awesome, I am so happy for you. I bet you are just sitting on edge waiting to get this over with. Not sure what day I will be up to visit you, what day do you think would be best for you? Since you are having it so early in the morning, I might make it over later that afternoon/evening. I wish you the best of luck during surgery...you are in great hands with Dr. Foote. I just had my 3rd stricture taken care of today, and hope and pray that will be my last one. See you on the losing side, probably tuesday sometime. Hugs... Cheryl

ANOTHER ONE CHERYL?? WOW!!! I SURE HOPE THIS IS THE LAST OF THOSE FOR YOU!!! I GUESS ANYTIME YOU FEEL LIKE IT YOU CAN COME SEE ME. GARY WILL BE THE ONLY ONE WITH ME. HE WILL BE STAYING OVERNIGHT IN THE ROOM WITH ME. JUST FAIR WARNING...I LOOK TERRIBLE WITHOUT MAKE-UP ON!!!! GUESS I COULD CALL IT MY HALLOWEEN MASK HUH.... YOU TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND AGAIN I HOPE THIS IS THE LAST ONE!!! HUGS JUDY

I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. The 17th is comming up so fast now! I am in day 2 of my fast, a little bit harder today, but I made it through. I got my free sample of Hanks protien and boy is that good stuff! The best I have tried. I want to order a whole tub of it but everyone says that your taste changes after surgery so I will wait to see if mine do. I had the chocolate, with skim milk and it really tasted like a malted milkshake! I went to the hospital for all my preop testing, so now the only thing to do is wait for my date, only 12 more days for me Ann

THANKS ANN!!! YOU WILL DO FINE ON YOUR PRE-OP DIET!! DRINK ALOT OF WATER AND IT WILL FILL YOU UP!!! THOSE 12 DAYS WILL FLY BY FOR YOU SO FAST!!! IT SURE DID MINE!! WOW!!!! BEST OF LUCK TO YOU!! HUGS JUDY
