Hey guys!!!
Hiya Ladies and gents,
I am sorry I have been lax in posting but it has been a wild week hehe. DH had family show up and crash at our house the weeknd, was nice but unexpected so I felt like I was playing catch up all weekend.
The first part of the week I ran around regathering the paperwork Margie needed for my file, faxed that in Monday afternoon, I called to make sure they recieved it and if it was all she needed, but only got her voice mail. I worried till wednesday when I was to see dr. H., However when I got there she said I tried to call this morning but bet you were on the way here LOL!! Thank God she told me she got everything she needs now!!! So now its just submit and wait till appoval for testing and the BIG date with the famous doc H LOL. Im soooooooooo very excited I can barley stand it, feels like I might acually make it yet haha!!!
Speaking of doc H I must say I thought he was GREAT at the siminar but absolutally fell in love with him during yesterdays appointment, he is a wonderful man, not to mention a lucky one to have his fabulous wife as well!! He went thru everything with me agin answered my few questions, I actually got him to laugh a few times, then he almost made me cry once, he looked right at me and said in a very caring voice, Don't worry Jeanine I know you need help and I am here to make sure you get it!!! I could have hugged him to bits!!! My MIL was with me and she, my hubby and all my family have been very supportive in all of this, but I know none of them have even a small clue how hard the decision to do something for yourself is.To have someone like Doc H and all of you understand not only how I feel,but make me hope, believe I am worth something, and not only let in a little light in that dark corner we have all hidden in with all our fears, doubts, pain and depression, but light it up this much already!!! I can only imagine how good things will continue to get, tho I am very aware there will be bumps along the way as well. Please dont misunderstand I adore my family and know beyond a doubt they love me, I have always been the care taker so stepping out of that role and trying to take care of me for once was hard, I must add they all want to help take care of me they say and that is even harder. Funny tho as much as I love all of them in this case I feel closer to all of you because I know no one that hasnt been thru this could ever understand!! I thank you all with all my heart for being so much support and so encouraging!!!
OK, OK lastly wanna say Im so very sorry to all the new people I did not get to welcome, the new loosers im so thrilled and proud of you all !! Sheilia and Bec Im so happy you guys got thru your surgery and tests!!!
LOL shielia, I mentioned you, Lori and Liz to Doc. H told him I had been watching you all, how proud I was of you and happy to see what good care they had all been in!! He just smiled and said you all were doing so well, he was proud too!! I told him we talked about him on the boards hehe, how gratful the older guys and all of us about to join his club were for broth and no drain tubes LOL!!!
I hope you guys who did get the tubes will soon all be free of them, BIG HUGS to all of you brave girls!!! You are certainly braver than I am!!!
I pray you all are well and happy on this fine Thursday afternoon!!! I promise to try and post more!!!
THank you agin so much for the smiles, hopes and dreams you have reawkened in me as well as so many others!!! You guys are the very best!!!
BIG HUGS and Prayers!!!

Jeanine good to see you back on the board and yes i think that is why we get so close to each other on here becasue unless you have walked in the shoes of a fat person you dont understand , they may try to and some of our support people do a great job of doing it but there is still that closeness to others that have been there and done that.
On top of that there is no question that any of us think of as stupid or silly since we have all been there.
Glad you had a good visit with Dr. H. He and Margie are great arent they. The couple of times i have emailed Margie she has gotten right back to me really really quick..
And dont be surprised to see Dr. H. come on line here sometime and answer a question or two ....he sneaks in and out on us lol .
great to have you back....
