HELLOOOO????

Is anyone here?

Hi Janie, I am in & out checking but not much activity. I put a message on the main board asking people to try to get in here but not much response yet. How are you doing now that surgery is a few weeks away? I feel like this process is SOOOO long & I just want to get the surgery done so I can start living like a "normal" person. I am so sick of beingsore & tired & not being able to do things because of my weight. Ok so I sound like a big baby but now that I have decided I want it to happen. (I'm an RN & know that's not how it goes but that's how I feel.) Pat

Hi Pat, I tried to write you back the other night but for some strange reason, my puter crashed. I am now back online with it so here I am. I agree with you about wanting to be "normal". I hate feeling like the odd one out. I am so excited that I have less then 3 weeks to go! What kind of RN are you? I am going to school to become an RN. I want to work with preemies. I used to be an elementary teacher before I had kids and now I want to be a nurse. I just have micro to take and the 4 nursing classes with clinical left to take. I had to drop my micro class for my surgery and will be taking it in the spring. I would hate to miss a class or two and risk not getting an A. Grades are way too important! Well, I had better get to the kids, they want to go swimming. Have a great day! Janie

Hey there. I wasn't on the computer much over the weekend, so just checking in now. It would be great if there was more activity here. Any way to find out how many people from NH are registered on line here? diane

I'm here! Not quite a New Hampshire resident....I am in Haverhill Ma...I can walk up the street into Plaistow though!

By the way Janie, I noticed that you are in Sanbornville. My husband's family owns a home on Lovell Lake. Beautiful area! We try to spend a weekend up there once in a while.

Kim, My grandfather had a beautiful log cabin home at Lovell lake years ago & we spent many happy times there. What a small world. I was devastated when he sold his home there. This just shows you how small a world we live in. Pat

Lovell Lake is where I take my kids swimming!! It is quite a small world!

Hello. I'm local but I don't get on the site very often. I'd love to chat, share info, all that. : ) K

Hi there. I'm in Pepperell - close enough, huh? I've got my medical workup this week and I meet with Dr. Drinkwater next Monday to get my date! Yeah! I am excited. Anyone else here in his program? I just fininshed the copign skills class and I really miss getting together once a week with people going through this. My family is supportive and all, but its still hard to talk to them about it. I think about it all the time, but my husband is all talked out on this subject. Then I've got my overweight friends and family who throw nasty remarks, or the ones who tell me I'm crazy and "Do you know how many people die from this surgery". So I was thinking of getting a small group together, and meet at each others houses - take turns, KWIM? Anyone inerested? Jenn [email protected]
