You are doing such a kind thing for yourself health-wise! And before you know it, the surgery is done, and you are off and running forward in your new life! Best regards to you! Vicki

Tuesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

Okay....finally a surgery date.....10/16/2007! !! I'm off to Hawaii on Saturday and will be back the 6th. On the 8th I start my liquids diet....argh, I hate that word. I'm also walking 30 minutes a day now as I want a great recovery. Very nervous, but excited!!!

One week post-op!
What a difference a week makes. My goodness I feel better. I'm getting in all my protein, dairy but I'm having trouble still with veggies. I guess that's a week two project.

My "wounds" are almost healed and my side pain is minimal (unless I stretch or lift......I know, don't stretch or lift!). I am walking everyday, but not as much as I should. Baby steps.

I'm off to the Beach in St. Pete for a little R&R.....I know the sea water will be tempting, but I'll do my best to resist. How I love the Gulf.

It's been very stressfull getting through this and I find myself very emotional now. I'm even crying at commercials. My body has been "wacked" out so I think a few days relaxing, reading and walking on the beach will be a terrific way to recouperate. Work can wait until next week!
