I just want to thank everyone involved with OH, the OH site for being here and the vets and newbies for sharing and caring. I will be leaving for the hospital in one hour and I am suprisingly calm at the moment!!!

I have learned so much from all of you and will take it forward with me as the true journey begins; you all have inspired me in so many ways, from input on the surgery itself, nutrition ideas, your success and trials and the truth about the difficult times that will undoubtedly be ahead of me on this journey --both nutritionally and psychologically.....

Thank you so much...can't wait to be on the losers bench with you all!!

Prayers would be appreciated.

Thank you....prayers were heard and answered, overall things have gone better than I expected physically; just dealing with some emotional issues but suspect some of that is normal related to surgery...
