Thank you Yvonne!  I went to their site and am gong to join as well as offer support.  I am so grateful that there are people out their helping others that don't have the opportunity that I have been given. I also read about the Vegas meeting in May.  I am going to try to make it to that as well. Sounds like a great time!  Thank you for all that you do!  You look so amazing and are an inspiration to me!!  :)

Hugs,

Tina :)

Thank you for sharing your story.  I feel so badly for you even sort of feeling guilty.  It's like you have survivor's guilt.  I would definitely suggest that you both join the WLSFA and submit your brother for a possible surgery.  You never know until you try and it's early yet.  If enough people join together it can be a dream for many that have been left behind.  I have actually seen this happen for 2 of our members right here.  Thanks to the generosity of 2 different doctors those 2 members were given a second chance.  I told the story on my blog and you can see the pictures of those 2 beautiful lives that were saved.

Don't ever give up on your brother.  Please do contact the WLSFA because there's always a chance they could help.
Thank you again for sharing your story....love being sent to you and your brother.
hugs, Y

Thank you so much for sharing that video Yvonne!  It was so touching!  I'm so happy she is finally able to get the surgery.  I know her life will never be the same after!  

I can so relate to the sisters, except for me, it is my brother and I.  We experienced some of the same things they talked about in life which affected us both.  I was lucky to be able to have the surgery recently, but my brother doesn't have insurance so he isn't able to. I feel kind of guilty in a way since he has many more health issues and truly needed it more than I  and yet he has been denied several times for surgery and now recently lost his insurance.   Every time I see him, I feel bad that I am losing weight and he hasn't had the opportunity that I was fortunate to have.  I'm hoping in time, he will also have this opportunity that I had and that we will be able to LIVE  life once again together and not just suffering and existing through it like he is now.  

Thank you again for sharing this!  It reminds me to not give up for my brother!  :)
