My Dear Sweet Yvonne. I have chills and my eyes are watering up. The desperation our wonderful parents go through to make sure we can live a happy and healthy life. I was SO BLESSED to be able to go through this journey with my mom. She had her rny 6 months before I did. I've been trying to get her to update her profile here because I am SO proud of her! And not just for her success with her rny. The thought of losing her is something I know one day I am going to have to face, but I never want it to be today. My Parents and my husband and I are a very close unit, in fact we live next door to one another. My dad, used to say occasionally how pretty my face is. One day I finally told him what that really means to us; "You're so pretty it's just to bad about your body!" He never said it again while I was overweight. Now occassionally he will say it with a big smile on his face, followed by how proud he is of me, and always letting me know he is proud of the Whole me.
It is a Blessed Life.

"P.S. my girlfriend is one of my biggest cheerleaders..she is currently trying to give me all her clothes..lol..she has been so awesome through the surgery that I know at heart she didn't agree with..I love her for that:) "
This is a true friend!!
I also wish they would do more studies on pcos. It's been diagnosable since the 30's (Stein-Leventhal Syndrom). Do you know if they gave your mom or your grandmother DES? As for being hereditary who knows, but you do know what to watch for and how to control it. Now that you have taken the measures you have with your diet you will pass that to your daughters and even if they do have it, it will keep the symptoms from acting up.
You are SO blessed to have your children. I do not have any YET, and I am getting very old (baby making wise) but I won't give up the hope. I'm glad you joined the group, you're going to be an awesome addition. You would probably be surprised at how many people can be helped by what you know and say.
Be Well My Friend
PS My eyes say THANK YOU for the darker pink ^_^*!!
