TOMARROW IS MY BIG DAY!!!

Hello everyone. Iam in California,Missouri tonight waiting to see the ENT specialist about my trach removal in the morning at 10:15am. Iam really excited. It has been 9years I have ad a trach tube. I really need all your prayers tonight and in the morning. I have lost 172lbs now. Iam 230lbs. I feel so much better...The main reaon I can tell its time to remove the trach is because I am starting to smell and breath through my nose now and sneezing ...That has never happend before. This is another obscycle to go over for me. Last Dr. in Kirksville said I could never have it removed . My pcp and Dr. H said that is untrue. so I believe them over him and I will be seeing DR.Rinner in Columbia. Iam happy to see all the new people on the board. Just hang in there and you will be blessed with a whole new life. It takes time and patience. But soon you will be dancing like I have been all day acting silly at my family gathering...LOL its been a very long time but I can still cut the rug. Well, I hope you all have a wondering new day tomarrow and GOD BLESS......Craig Watts

Dear Craig, You have been on my mind a lot lately-and whenever I think about you I send a prayer up~I posted yesterday on the prayer request post about your trach being removed-as I couldnt remember what day you had mentioned in your prior e-mail.....I know that you dont know me-but I really hope that you can make it to the MO board 1st annual reunion this Sept so we can all meet you and give you a big old hug-I would love to hear you SING some of those songs you talk about as well!~ Good to see you on here-and I will say more prayers for you~ PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE drop in and post for us and let us know what happens-and although I am about 5 hrs from Columbia (in Diamond, MO) I will probably hear you from home-LOL....Take care and God Bless, Janet

Thank you Janet for those nice words. I do try to get on at my home but my computer is slow. Yes I do plan on attending the reuion in Sept and this June 19 in sedalia. Maybe if I have my trach removed by then I can sing and play for you all.....God Bless ...Craig Lee
