I've got a date with Dr. Rupp this morning

Well, I can't sleep because I'm so anxious...no I'm excited. I'm meeting with Dr.Rupp at 9:30 today for my VBG. It's been a long time a coming, but I'm sure it has been worth the wait. I'm asking for all your prayers and want to say "thanks" for your support. With God's hands guiding Dr. Rupp's hands, I'm starting the first day of my NEW life. WOW. I'll be in touch when I'm back home. God Bless and love to all......Eileen P.S. Sorry I didn't make it to Caribou on Saturday. I didn't sleep at all until they hooked me up to the CPAP. By the time I got home, showered, removed the glue from hair....I thought I had 1/2 hour to grab a couple of winks. Unfortunately, I didn't hear the alarm and I woke at 11:00 a.m. A little late, but I must haved needed it. I'll be there one of these days.

Hi Eileen, My thoughts and prayers are with you I wish for you a speedy and uneventful recovery! Keep us posted. Big hugs, Sara
