I've got a date.... 10/19

Dr. Chapman's office called today to give me my surgery date, it's Friday October 19th!  I'm so excited to fnally have a date, it's finally starting to feel real.  The timing was great because I was having dinner with some of my closest friends, so we celebrated, with food of course, for one of the last times for a while. Later, Alice

YEA!!  Congratulations!   We are only 8 days apart.  Mine is Oct. 11th.   I am so happy for you!  I know that it is a relief to have a date.   It does make is seem real.   It will fly by fast, I know it!! Congrats again! Caroline

Alice -

I'm delighted for you. You'll have to get a special scrapbook to document this journey! Be sure to take plenty of photos and journal, journal, journal!

Congratulations!

Hey Barb, look at my photos, I have pics of the scrapbook I started back in July when I decided to travel this road.  The psychologist I saw loved it, when I told her about it she asked me to bring it by and let her see it.  She is going to suggest the idea to other clients.  Made me feel good.   This weekend, I'm going to get my daughter to take my measurements.  I want to track them throughout the weight loss.  That page is in the scrapbook already.  I'm also tracking the cost of the surgery and all the related costs with total charges, what I pay, and what the insurance pays.  I did this with my husband's cancer treatments and it was astonishing...... have a great day!  Alice

Hi Alice! Just checked out your pix... VERY nice!  You are FAR more organized than I am!  LOL Enjoy your day!

Wooooo Hoooooo!!!!   Congratulations!  Another "sister" to visit. Take care. Ellen
