My surgery is scheduled for Monday the 10th and I have been so excited about this but today I'm starting to have second thoughts. Does anyone have words of encouragement?.......Terry

Terry, I think this is the most common fear. We are having to give up things that brought us the most comfort. I know I was a wreck. Mine was having to be put to sleep. I know God was in my surgery, it went to smoothly. From start (the first surgeons visit) to the end. This board will keep you in their Prayers & rest assured that all will be well. Just think, Soon you will join us on the losers bench. Please keep us updated on your progress. Best of luck & I send wishes for a speedy recovery. Sara.

Sara, Thank you so much. You are such a sweetie!!! I know God will be with me and take care of me. Everything has been great so far. I feel a little better this morning. I guess a good nights sleep helped. I ask that each and everyone of you remember me in prayer tomorrow morning. My surgery is at 11:00...............Terry

TRY TO THINK OF IT AS A BIRTH FOR A NEW LIFE. ALL JOKING ASIDE , THE FIRST 4 DAYS ARE BAD, BUT THE MORE YOU CAN WALK AND MOVE AROUND THE BETTER YOU BEGIN TO FEEL, I HAD MINE ON MARCH 13 AND WENT BACK TO WORK APRIL1, AND NOW 78 POUNDS LIGHTER, LIFE IS SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST GETTING OUT OF BED, IT IS GREAT, PLUS, I YOU CAN HANDLE THE BOWEL PREP, YOU CAN HANDLE ANYTHING, GOOD LUCK AND GOD BE WITH YOU SHARON

Sharon, Thanks so much. I am feeling better today. Went to church this morning and going tonight(this is a regular routine) and I know that God will be with me. I plan to go back to work in two weeks if possible. I'm a nursing supervisor for the State so I don't have to do a lot of patient care. I mostly push papers. I have the greatest staff anyone could ask for. They work hard which makes my job much easier. The only bowel prep I had to do is drink Carnation instant breakfast 6 times a day for 4 days. Hasn't been to bad except for the headaches. Thanks for the prayers Sharon and congrats on the weight loss.........Terry
