  • Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose.  Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email.  I'll answer it as soon as possible.

i think it also depends on which list you look at.  my sister had lymphoma and they said the color was lime green.  I am wearing it today...completely by chance. I didn't know about the day of hope.  We lost her a year ago on the 13th.
