Happy Re-Birthday to me!

Well, one year ago today after much ado and 3 moths in the hospital, God made plans for me and here I am. Yes, I actually made it through a year of pure He&& and I made it through to the other side. There is no way that I would be alive today if it wasn't for my mother being at the hospital with me and demanding that the surgeon do something, other than nothing! And calling in another surgeon after firing the original one that did the surgery. All of the prayers of my friends and family and ultimately the path that God has laid out for me, whatever it might be, has led me to this place a year later. Through all the teras, pain and suffering, I never thought I would make it to this point. Yet, here I am. I am out of the hospital, off from oxygen, no feeding tube anymore, no barfing all day long for, yes, months at a time, am out of that dam& wheelchair, and am able to actually go through a day without crying and wondering if I am going to live until the next day. I can't say that I would do it all again, but I can say thank you to all of you for keeping me positive when I thought I could not make it through another day. THANK YOU ALL and here's to losing those last 30 pounds I am struggling with

Congrats on your re-birthday. Glad to hear that things are looking up now. Sounds like you went through he&& and back. Good luck getting that last 30 lbs off! Lori
