Hey Elizabeth, I am having my surgery on March 22nd so we are in the same boat. I am so glad to hear that you are approved and will have your surgery soon. Congrats and look forward to talking more with you. I am in Eastman, which I believe is a pretty good distance from you in Lawrenceville, but would like to chat and keep in touch anyway. D'Lynn

Hi Elizabeth, Everyday will be a new adventure. Some days will be better than others. I am sure your family and friends have told you life on what we call the losing side is a wonderful way to live. With all the challenges I know I would do this again in a minute. Congratulations! You have won the battle for a healthier better you! God Bless Your Journey, Sheila -115
