Hi Teena! Thank you soooo much for your encouraging words! Congrats on your 6/6 surgery date, as well. I wish you the very best. Since we are not too far away from one another we will have to stay in touch. If you need anything...just let me know! hugs and prayers...

Hi Teena, Just let me say thank you so much of your words of kindness on my surgery tomorrow. I have to tell you I read your personal comments and I hear what your saying. I really do think you have the right perspective and will do really good with this surgery because you seem to be a person who is in charge of her own mind. I wish you all the best Teena. You are going places. Get that surgery and conquer the world.

Teena, I am wishing you a successful, complication-free surgery and a smooth, quick recovery. I had my open RNY on 12/10/01 and can honestly say that I have NO regrets other than not having done this several years sooner. It is, without a doubt, the best thing I could have done for myself. God bless you as you begin your healthy new life.

My new surgery date is June 6, 2002. I am so excited. I never thought that this day would come, but it is 53 days away. I am so excited and so prepared than ever. My consultation is May 6, 2002. Now I have to prepare for surgery by taking Procrit to increase my red blood cells because I am very anemic. I wish you all well.
