Well, big CONGRATS on your upcoming surgery, Zac T!!!!  I'll be thinkin boutcha July 13th!

September is a good month for surgery . . . harkens back to the excitement of a new school year.  Good time for a surgiversary!

Congratulations!  I'm so glad you have a new date! 

...and I totally get the weepy thing too!  It's all very emotional to see and hear about the powerful transformations that everybody experiences with this.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! Dont worry the date will come faster then you think.. You'll have more time to prepare.. 
My surgery was scheduled my FMLA approved before I even knew my surgery was a go.. My boss looked at me one morning and congratulated me on surgery and told me everything was in place and that my leave was approved before I even knew what the date was. I was still waiting for the pre-op testing to come back... When I finally found out I was seven days out from surgery and thank god my boss said something and thank god I planned for it months ahead because if I had not I wouldnt have been ready. What was nice is that everything happened so fast I didnt have a single second to get nervous..

I just love my GLBT family!!!  Thank you for the support.  Everyday I feel more and more happy that it is in September.  I need the time to think and reflect on how and most important WHY I got here.  I mean, I was ALWAYS a big girl but very active (cheerleading, softball, swimming, etc.)  and was actually very good.  But in the past 4 years I feel like the dead walking.  I hurt every time I stand up or walk or sit or.....well, you all know very well.....just "living" hurts.  I now try not to even leave the house.  I actually said to myself "ok,  I just won't leave the house until I'm done my surgery."  I find that so depressing.  I can't wait to bury that sad person.  But yet, I love the kind, humble, non-judgemental, open-minded person she has made me.  Soooooooo, as I ramble on and on, what I really wanted to say was thanks, lol.  I just got off track.  Love ya all!!!!
