Well a lot has happened in the past year. I have had ups and downs. Fostering children has taken its toll on my wife and me but we have found a good match of kids; a baby boy 10 months old, an 8 and a 17 year old girl. I have completed all requirements and have been approved for my surgery. May 27 2008 is the magical day. I am starting my liquid diet on Monday the 11th. A little nervous and anxiety is high. Still walk but not as much. Need to ramp that back up.
