What great news!!! Congrats! I really like what you said about now understanding what the surgeon meant when he said the VSG is only a tool. IT's really powerful when you come to understand what that means for you! If you've got that down, you really are in good shape to begin maintenance. Congrats again on a job well done!
Thank you so very much Kairk! I have followed your journey and have learned so much from your posts --really appreciate your ability to be "so real" when you share. Barb
