Finally got my surgery date

Hello everyone I havent been a member here very long but I have been reading alot on this web site and I have learned alot from you guys. I am very excited but also very scared if anyone has any advise I would appreciate it very much but most of all I would like all of your prayers while I go on this journey. I know it is by his grace I am able to finally have this done. I have been trying of over a year now to get my insurance approved and he bless me to find a doctor in Atlanta Ga. that got my Ins. approved and now I am set for March 9th. So if anyone has any advise please give me a hollow. Deneice Ga.

Hello Deneice, I want to say WELCOME! I had my surgery back in July 2006 and I'm very happy that I had it done. If you have any questions please let me know and I will try and help you any way that I can. Hug's Jeannie

Thank you Jeannie I appreciate that I have fallen in love with this website it is wonder I have learned so much from you guys. I maybe hollowing at you with some questions I know it is gonna be a different journey and I am a little scared but I am really ready for this. Thanks, Deneice

Deneice, Do not be scared! I will be there to help you anyway that I can. See when I had my surgery I was alone. But I did have my friend from high school there. She was with me until I came out of surgery and she knew that I was OK. Then she went home; it was the next afternoon when everything started going wrong. I have no family so I was in the hospital for a week alone. But now I'm almost 7 months post op and I really feel great. I live in Stockbridge, Georgia I have lived here for 13 years. Where do you live? I look forward to talking with you. Hug's Jeannie

let me know if you need an angel....

I can always use an angel thanks for asking. Deneice

Congratulations on your surgery date!! My RNY is scheduled for the 13th. Sue
