I have decided. . .

. . .to forge ahead with my surgery as scheduled!! I want to take a minute to thank each and every one of you for all your thoughts, best wishes, and most importantly, your prayers. To those who have sent me personal messages (and you know who you are) thank you doesn't even come close to covering what that meant to me!! I cannot express how much you all mean to me. These past five days have been just awful but as I was getting out of the shower this morning this thought popped into my head, "With God, nothing is impossible!" It was like a light bulb came on or something!! Sometimes life is tough, but you know, there are always people out there who are worse off than we are. That is a hard thing to remember sometimes when we are going thru tough times. So I decided to pick myself up, dust myself off, and change my attitude about my situation. In doing so, I have had one of the best days in a long time!! Now I am ready to move forward with this process and to quote Larry the Cable Guy -- GIT R DONE!!!!!!!!!! I want to be the best person I can be -- both inside and out so it's full steam ahead and the things I cannot change in my life will take care of themselves. It's time to focus on ME for a change and that's what I intend to do from now on! My pre-op appointment is scheduled for tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it. I have lost 16 lbs so I hope that makes my surgeon happy!! Thanks again for everything!! You guys are the best!!! Hugs to you all, Donna

Hey Donna, I'm glad you have made your decision and I think you will be happy with it in the long run. I hope things go smoothly for you now. I hate that you have been having a tough time lately. Surely things will start looking up soon. All good thoughts coming your way. Best Wishes, Judy
