Im almost done jumping through hoops

I had my NUT appointment today and it went really good. Lt. Harding was very helpful and gave me a big packet to read about foods and eating before and after surgery. I only have to do my endoscopy, ultrasound and my cardio and then I will be done jumping through hoops I really thought that this would take months and months to do but so far knock on wood everything has been smooth. Its nice to be able to come here and talk and write about all of this.. Ive meet some wonderful people here and its fun to share stories. I hope everyone has a great day!!!

I know what you mean. I finally cleared the biggest hoop by getting my weight documentation in line after a year of this. Now I have to go back to my shrink and get new labs drawn. After those 2 things everything will be ready to send for approval.

Great news for you...and thanks for earlier. When I'm done on here, I'm gonna give you a ringy dingy.  Mare

Darcie, I'm so glad that things are moving along for you. Linda

Hey Darcie- I am so glad your pre-op testing is going smoothly. We are saving a space on the loser's bench for you! Is your DH lining up those single Marines to march them down to Wilm for the get together? I like mine with blonde hair, blue eyed, big, broad shoulders.....Can I place an order??? Would that be considered a transfer addiction???LOL! No longer ordering fast food- ordering up men instead!! Much better benefits! Take care, Looking forward to meeting you on 7/28/07. Stay cool, Sheila

Wonderful news, Darcie!  Just keep on keepin' on!  It gets done one step at a time! And while Sheila is placing her order, let me add mine to that, ok?  Pretty and dumb is ok, but I do like them to be able to hold up their end of the conversation, ok?  And no, I don't want fries with that! Suzanne

Sheila and Suzanne... your posts made me laugh so hard!!! With the hundreds of single men on the base both those orders can be covered!! I just talked to hubby on the phone and he started laughing when I told him about your *orders*. I really hope to be able to come and meet everyone as long as my work schedule will cooperate. I am having my endoscopy done on 7/24/07 and since I have to be at PCMH so early and it is so far from here we are getting a room the night before in Greenville so I might have to work that weekend

What time is your endoscopy scheduled for? Inquiring minds want to know.*LOL* Dr. Fountain did mine. She was great. Linda

I have to be at PCMH at 7:30 am way to early to get up and drive all the way to Greenville from here!! I was suppose to have Dr. Fountain but then I could not get to Greenville next Monday so they moved the date and now I have her associate Dr. Leong

Darcie- Your DH can bring the troops for dinner- even if you have to work! Suz. and I are EASY!!! LOL- Just kidding!!!!- so want you to be able to come down! Take care, Sheila
