I posted on Friday night how the reality was setting in on the seriousness of this surgery and that my courage was wavering.  In true OH family tradiition everone sent such wonferul encouragement and prayers.  I am now sitting in my hospiital bed a mere 9 hours from surgery.  My experience was amazing and the staff is very accommodating.  I will write more, however, I am finding it difficult  focusing (they just gave me somethin to sleep) sooooo........

......move over cuz there is another LOSER in the house!

Thank you everyone!

Hi Ann,

Glad your surgery is nearly here for you.  Wow, you are lucky that you could be at the hospital the night before.  I had to leave and drive 70 miles to the hospital. 

Good luck with your surgery.  I just saw the Doctors show where they demo'ed the sleeve.

Before you know it you'll have to buy a smaller size of big girl panties. It's good to hear from you. Enjoy the good hospital drugs. All the best.
