PS - don't let people tell you what is a "normal" amount of time to grieve &/or tell you "it's time to move on with life" . There is no book with a magic number on normalcy where grieving is concerned . We are all different & no one knows how you are feeling , except you . After only 9 months , I have actually had a couple of people say these things to me . And I have not been wallowing in self pity at all . People can be very strange & judgmental . Kathy

I delivered 6 weeks early a 5lb 15oz lil boy:) After spending 2 months on bed rest in the hospital and Mason spending 11 days in the NICU, we're both home and doing great! Mason is getting bigger and gaining weight like he should. Now it's my turn to lose this weight! It's tough to get back on the band wagon...I CAN do this!

hey ev1
There is a weight loss surgery support group on Ft Lewis,, we meet every thursday, at the AFCS Building on Liggett Ave, down the street from the bowling alley across from Waller Hall,it is open to anyone that can get on base
It is ran by people who want to help others,we have had or thinking about the weight loss surgeries,most of us are from Madigan and are military related.
Patients now get credit for the additional surgeries after you lose the weight,for tummy tucks,breasts lifts,bat wings removed,you must attend 1 meeting bi-monthly,or more if you wish,We are the only group besides the meeting at Madigan for which you get the credit for the additional surgeries,I work with general surgery and the Pathway people,
So Please come ,

It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning in
It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.
It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.

I have been worried about you. I heard your mom was ill, I am so sorry she passed. I am confident she is in a better place. Take very good care of yourself! If you need anything let me know. I miss you and am thinking about you everyday.
Love, Emily
