My Family's Reaction Update as Promised!!!
Well, my husband and son were looking out the door waiting for me to get home, I saw Dale sneak out and hide behind my husband's truck, because he thought he was going to scare me. The joke was on him though!!! I got out of the van and my husband was stopped in his tracks and whistled at me, while he just kept looking at me. Then I thought to myself, why hasn't Dale tried to scare me? Then I turned around and saw him frozen with his mouth on the ground!!! I do believe he was speachless. LOL I asked him what he thought and he said, "MOM, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!" Todd said, "I agree with you son" and then he kissed me!!!! Later on, I asked Todd on a scale of 1-10 how did he think I looked and he said I was a "10, for sure". I asked before my makeover, what was I? He said about a "7", therefore I do believe that the two men in my life were quite impressed, neither one of them can stop telling me how different and great I look. For those of you that knew I needed one more improvement to complete my new look, I went today and got my eyebrows waxed and I will have a picture taken soon with the completed look!!! I am so thankful to have everyone's love and support, your faces when I walked in the room and your comments I will never forget, thanks for your love!!
My "Angel" Paula and her friend Gina made this amazing new me possible, as well as all of the support from my "Angel" Susan. I can not express in words how grateful and how touched my heart is by what was done for me. I can only pray that I am able to touch the lives of others as they have touched my life, even before yesterday!!! One thing that I will never understand is how anyone could think that they do not need support when they go though this surgery and the after-care is beyond me, because I contribute my success to my complete support system and my Angels are a key part of it!!!
I love you all!!
Shelia
PS
I know you know it, but Paula and Susan are two awesome individuals and I can only pray that I can provide the same to others as they have shared with me, but one thing for sure, I have two wonderful examples to learn from!!!
Thanks for EVERYTHING!!!!

Shelia,
You are gorgeous. I love the hair. It is good to hear & see the excitment in you again. From all the past post reading, I have you right up there with Paula and Susan. You are always there for everyone. This board is lucky to have you giving a helping hand.

P E A C E - It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
Shelia, you are absolutely gorgeous! From a male point of view, your husband is right 10+! As far as sharing what you have learned from Susan and Paula, you already do that! From the first time I met you, you have been a true Friend, an inspiration, and somebody I can always count on! As far as I am concerned, this could not have happened to a better person! I am truly proud of all you have accomplished ! I am really sorry we had to miss Saturday, you have no idea how much Beth and I wanted to be there! See you soon!
Later on, I asked Todd on a scale of 1-10 how did he think I looked and he said I was a "10, for sure". I asked before my makeover, what was I? He said about a "7"
He should have said 10 before and 11 after..
LOL.
Seriously though... A totally amazing transformation Shelia. I honestly wish I had made the luncheon to see the amazed looks! I am very proud of what you have accomplished and the changes that you have made. A great example to us all. Keep up the wonderful work!
Take care, Miss 11!
