Ok, my surgery was to be 6/11 and then it got canceled because of a "abnormal EKG"- So, I ahd to get cardiac clearance and yes ... As of MONDAY I am Cleared for SURGERY!! yes.. it is a reality and on the 20th I am going in the hospital!!! I am so freakin Happy... AND YA KNOW WHAT ELSE? Knowing I don't have to weigh in anymore at first I said "cool" I can cheat and eat pasta, ice cream, or something forbidden as my last meal and guess what?? I really don't want to.. No, I really don't.. I honestly thought I would want to go out and eat a great "last meal" but for some reason It just does not appeal to me>..I want to be good!! Thats not like me at all!! I am so lucky to be able to have this surgery!! I am excited!! HAVE A GREAT NIGHT!! lOVE YA, rae

Congratulations and keep up that great attitude

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. (Php 3:13-14)
