today's my birthday; tomorrow's my date!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all.

today's my birthday and fathers day. So we're all celebrating together. i'm very grateful for 2 things in order of importance,

1. My children have a father--he's ill with liver disease, the doctors are waffling on the time for him to have a transplant, and I'm just happy he's with us.

2. MY WLS is tomorrow.
Little did I know when this all started that I would be on clear liquids today. The joke's on me, because when I requested this date, I thought today would be my birthday dinner, "last meal." But we had it last Sunday, so I certainly didn't miss a meal.

So, I'm excited, nervous, anxious, definately have NO intentions of changing my mind, although I probably will when I get the pic line put in & wake up w/2 drains, yuk.

I'd like to see Ocean's 13 today because next to my hubby, I'm in love with Geoge Clooney.

I now have an angel, Karen I, which I am so grateful for. She just gave me a wonderful gift, which I truly treasure.

See you on the other side!

Happy Birthday  and Happy WLS EVE !!! Prayers are with dad! *~*Blessed Be*~*

wow, congratulations oO   I know what you mean by wantingto enjoy that "last meal" before surgery. I'm sure your surgery will go great, I wish you all the luck on it and on your husband finding a donor.

Thank you both.

Alexx, 47 lbs. Hurray for you! I like your ticker--are you a musician?

>_< I wish I was. I do want to try and learn to play the piano again. I've always been afraid to because...well, I broke a piano bench once and I don't need that ordeal again. And thanks. 37 of those pounds were pre-op weight loss. Only 10 of it is post op, unless I've gained since my last weighing which I hope to god i haven't.

Karen, Happy birthday! Tomorrow will be a new birthday of sorts for you... I wish you best of luck with your surgery and for a speedy recovery.  Please keep us informed on your progress. You are in excellent hands with Dr. Garber. And, might I add, you have the absolute best angel, my sister Karen I! Hope to see you on the losers bench soon myself. Take care, Lisa

Karen, HAPPY BIRTHDAY hun and also happy birthday for tomorrow since that will be your re-birth to the YOU. I wish you all the best hun and please keep us posted!

Thank you all. I AM HUNGRY! I don't know how people do clear liquids for more than one day before surgery! I guess tylenol liquid is not a clear liquid.

Happy Birthday and Hope your surgery goes well tomorrow.  God Bless

happy birthday!!!!!! here's to a speedy recovery and a wonderful year!!!
