Stephanie Capek (StephanieAZ)

Wasn't her surgery like 10 days ago? Had no one heard from her since then?

Dr. Husted cancelled on her (surprise!) so she was scheduled on 11th with Dr. Hilario Juarez.

I'm going to save the whole surgeon conversation for another thread. I know alot of people who feel certain ways about it. I want to keep this thread about her and nothing else.

there's an additional surname for her...Orellana.  Stephanie Orellana.  You can see some of her thoughts and photos and all that...and on twitter, too... twitter.com/#!/stephyno

As per boyfriend
"Stephanie's autopsy will be conducted tomorrow, 8/15/11. I will make sure to update her page with this information before it is shut down."

He is really having a rough time. She loved him so much. I wish I could hug him.

I'm about to go to bed but as soon as I wake up I promise to keep the updates up as I get them.

The poor guy :-( . Thank you for passing on updates.

My Prayer's go out to her loved ones.Wow I remember reading her post     http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/ds/4422912/Morbid-much/#36 560272  I sure hope she didn't shred those letters and her love ones can find some comfort in them.

I am so lost of words right now.  It just makes me think of how serious this really is.  We post every day about our struggles and fight to have surgery not realizing that some people never make it out of surgery.  I can't help but shed a tear from this sad news because I spoke to Stephanie about a month ago in regards to my insurance issues.  She was so nice and just like all of us she wanted a second chance at life.   May she RIP. 

My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends. Vanishing Mom, if you need to talk, we are here for you. Please keep us posted.

My heart is just breaking right now, and my fears of my upcoming Aug 17th surgery are escalating!

What her family and loved ones must be going through, such a loss of a young beautiful life who just wanted to live!

Prayers for everyone!
