An Update from Long Lost Laura
Hi Everyone, its been a while since I have been in here I figured an update was overdue. I am now 15 months post op and struggling each and every day to keep the weight coming off. My biggest problem is lack of time to get to the pool for my water aerobics and workout. I wear my pedometer all day long and get at least 15 miles in every day. I also do pilates and some weight lifting. But the weight is coming off at a much slower pace. I would like to lose 25 more to be down to my goal of 120 pounds down from 320.
Things have not been easy in my life. We faced a traumatic move and adjustment period. And then found out that my precious 21 year old daughter has cervical cancer. This came as a huge shock and a warning for all of you to have your daughters checked for HPV virus that causes Cervical cancer. Her cancer is advanced and we are waiting for more biopsies to come back within the week. Thank God we have little Christian her two and a half year old son. I ask that each of you keep her in your prayers that she can be cured and go on to have a very long healthy life. I beg each one of you with daughters to make sure they get to the Dr and have the simple test for the virus and treat it before it turns to Cancer. Like the comercials say TELL SOMEONE.. Tell Everyone..
I Love you all and am so happy to be a part of this OH family. I will try to be more active again. But life has been so chaotic. Between work, family and now some dating. God is Good, Life is Good.
Hugs
Miss Laura
I am so very sorry to hear about your daughter. i also have a chronically ill child and I know how your heart is breaking. I plan to have my girls vaccinated against this virus... Know that God has a very special plan for her and that with him Miracles happen every day. I will be praying for both of you... glad to have you back..... diane
