Thank you so much Susan!

I am so happy for you- you deserve it! You are always so thoughtful and supportive to all of the people that post here. I am glad that it is your turn to receive the "congrats". It is nice to go through these emotions with others going through the same things. Tammy

Awww thanks so much for your kind words Tammy I can't believe it myself, I think I'm still in shock! Your turn is coming I know it! My girlfriend is having surgery with Dr. Hunter. Her surgery is in Sept. I also had the chance to talk with Steve too, he's sooo nice I have a pretty good impression of Virginia Mason... everyone is very knowledgeable and nice too. I will keep you in my prayers and hope that you get a surgery date too! XoXo~ Kimanne

Hey there, I am so thrilled that you have a date! I am still waiting for approval and it is driving me crazy, but I just have to put it in God's hands and realize that he is never late. He is always on time according to his plan. I will continue to pray for you and your journey. And by the way, I read your post called "Here goes" and thought that it was wonderful. I always enjoy reading your post because of the beautiful, loving, and still take no nonsense attitude in them. Sorry to ramble. Congrats again!!! God Bless, Jennifer Pre-op

Aww Jennifer (hugs) thanks so much for your words of encouragement I understand what you're going thru, I was crazy, obsessive and drove my family and friends nuts about WLS. *lol* I finally had to say "enough" and turn it over to God... I had done all I could do, so I just waited until he was ready Many times I had to remind myself, its in HIS time, not mine. Yes, your time will come too! Thank you for your prayers, I will keep you in mine as well Oh, and you didn't ramble, I loved reading your post! X0Xo~Kimanne

Hi! Thank you so much for your email! This message board forum seems like such a wonderful group of people. I guess God has led me here! Where are you having your surgery? My surgery is scheduled for October 14th at the WISH Center in Renton. Dr. Strain is my surgeon. I just wanted to say congratulations on getting that step done--I know how wonderful it feels! I am glad I found this website!
