Miss Elizabeth

I am so Happy to know that you will be one day ahead of me for your surgery, and that you will be at the hospital to cheer me on and inspire me to get up and get moving. I want to thank you for coming into my life. You have made it much less scary for me. I was feeling so alone going into the hospital and knowing I wouldnt have my family there for support. But knowing you would be around the corner has made me feel so much more at ease. Meeting you at Dr Mikami's office I felt like I had known you and your friend all my life. You both are angels to me. I wish you all the very best as you go in on Thursday and know you are going to tap dance your way through this!!!! And I am counting on walking the halls with you under the influence of mind altering medications. So until then I pray that you can stay relaxed and focus on the day that you and I can both move around without pain and ride roller coasters together at Kings Island!!!! I am so Thankful for your friendship Miss Liz, I Love you, and I will see you on Friday, I am going to look you up before I go to surgery.. I will be the chubby one in the hospital gown.. LOL Big Hugs, Laura

LAURA YOU STINKER!!! You always know how to yank the tears from my eyes!!! You are a very special friend to me too....you have a gentle giving spirit and the bond we share can never be duplicated! The commonalities concerning the timing of our approval, consult and surgery are far too special to be a coincidence. We were meant to be in each other's lives! I look forward to seeing you Friday morning!!! I WILL be looking for you. I look forward to partying-down with you and the morphine drips!!!(...gosh that sounds like a old "big hair" band!). We are so fortunate Laura. THIS is the week we start our new lives!...and we will be strong and successful because we will be there for each other!!! Love you Laura and see you on Friday!!!

I wonder how we can find a DVD player with a tv up there. I got the brand new realease of Phantom of the opera .. And it is nothing short of Awesome. I am gonna watch it over and over and over while i am recovering. By the way I am also looking for My Fuzzy Moose Slippers to wear for our hallway walks.. !!! We are gonna have some fun... Oppsss Its getting las so I have better be getting in bed. I Love you my new friend with all my heart. God sent you to me to help get me through all of it. I will be there for you my friend as you need me.. Love ya, Laura

Ok, I am gonna have to wander over there for sure on Friday to see how the party is goin! Morphine Drips and fuzzy moose slippers...oh man that sounds like a hoot! I am soooo glad that you two have found a wonderful friendship. Support is so important in this lifelong process! God speed to you both and we will welcome you two to the losing side with open arms! Hugs, Val
