Renae, way to go, girl!  Please let us know how your surgery went and how you are feeling.  I will be back and forth between ABQ and El Paso for the next few months so if we have a chance to cross paths, let's go for it!

Also, sweetie, if you have any questions, concerns and simply need someone to talk with please know that we are all here for you.  AND when you put Kelly and I together you will no doubt have a sore side from laughing so hard (we do enjoy life!)

Well that sounds like fun. Maybe I can get my parents to go with me. I had no clue there were very many others here in SF. Thanks.

Topic: Surgery Tomorrow!
Hi everyone!

I leave today to take my 4 hr trek to El Paso to go change my life. Tomorrow at 10am, I will be in surgery. I'm excited, scared, anxious, nervous, happy all rolled up!

My kids will stay here with my mom (thank God for Grandma) and I hope to be home on Tuesday.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting this done & working hard to make this work for me.

The information I get here is invaluable & I'm lucky to have found you all.

I'll touchbase when I'm home.

Have a beautiful Sunday!
