    Monday 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! ~ JudyAnne

    Maureen, Good luck and take care of yourself. I am right behind you on the surgery date, so you'll need to update us all on your progress.

Wow!  A new year and a new way of living!    I am two weeks out from my surgery and feeling great!  I only have a couple of steri-strips left and everything is healing well.  I slept on my side for the first time last night with just a bit of a pulling feeling on the lower left side.  Today it seems to be nonexistent, even when I lean over.  I see Dr. Sonnanstine Thursday, and will get my note to go back to work on the 7th.  I am excited to be going back to work, but will be somewhat afraid the first time I lift my student.  I tire easily, but I know that will be better in time.  I am up doing things around the house, and grocery shopping as well.  

Thursday I will be given clearance to start the next phase of my advancing diet as well.  I will be so excited!    I am ready! 

Back to my laundry!

Glad everything is going well. Just remember to take your time an don't over do it. I get excited just reading your post. I feel the same way. I went out to shovel snow this morning and caught the rath of my husband for not making the kids do it. I love to be active and physically work. I can't wait to be able to get back in the pool for my exercises. Hope your new year is lighter and wonderful.
