Surgery Monday!!!
I can not begin to tell all of you how excited I am with a twinge of nervousness. It seems that I have had to overcome alot to get to this point, from insurance issues, changing doctor issues, to all the appointments, and rescheduling of the surgery issue.....wow is all I
can say. I feel truly blessed to be able to have this surgery, and I have every intention on using my new tool well. This has been a good week even while on clear liquids. I have kept a positive attitude and my focus on the main thing. Do I miss food already...ummm..yes. I am in the beginning stages of realizing just how much I have sought food for
all of my emotions...its amazing. I am ready to do this regain my health. Today, my co workers all got together and bought a whole bunch of easy to fix meals for kids. I was like..WOW...GO****hen someone gave me some flowers for my birthday which is next Wednesday...and I
thought that was such a sweet thing. I have truly felt loved today and all the hugs...wow...and well wishes...made me feel truly loved. I have all the arrangements made for my kids next week, so the only thing to do is do some extra rearranging in my house and relax. I am headed to the losers bench. The info that I receive on here has been awesome and this is a great group of folks.

I'm very excited for you, and I'm happy to share this special day with you. I know this has been a struggle for you, but you have faced each dip in the road with courage. I know you will not take this gift for granted.
How nice that you were the recipient of love today. It is important to have a network of friends and family to support you. You have my prayers. I know I have yours, too.
This is going to be awesome, and we are going to be fine.

lol. I am fine though...hey I am half way thru the 4 day clear liquid phase. I will definately be at support group next month so i can put names with faces. I know its something I have to do. I'll just have to do it! Everyone says they have a hard time doing the clear liquids but it will pass! AND its for a good reason and I will be better off in surgery by doing this!
You don't have much longer now!!!
I'm so excited for you!!!!
Hugs
