~*~I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all.

hey everyone this is deanna's daughter ashley and i just wanted to let everyone know who has heard about my moms surgery that she had it done today 7-5-03 and everything went great i have to admit i myself was starting to worry even tho she wasn't i was at work and one of the girls i work withs mom called and was cryin but didn't tell her what and she is one of my good friends and i love her and her mom there so great and we thought something was wrong with her mom so the thought that something was wrong with her mom made me start to worry really bad and i hadn't talked to her all day so as soon as courtney left of course i broke down cryin cause i was thinkin of my mom and after i stoped i called my best friend bradley who was in california on a trip but i couldn't tell him why i sounded diffrent just the fact that i had nothing to do and wanted to see how he was cause i couldn't have told him he would have thought about the whole trip cause he loves my mom just as much as i do but i'm glad she did it and i know she wanted it so bad and i just hope that if there are any kids or relitives looking threw this cause someone they love is thinking about just support them and give them possitive thoughts because we all have to die some day and if your not happy with the way you are i think it would be better to die knowin that you tried everything you could i'm only 16 and to be honest with you i thought my mom was a super hero and the fact that she just might be human occured to me about three days before her surgey i don't know what i would have done if anything happened to her but i would have rather her died happy with herself then unhappy MOM if you read this i just want you to know that you wrote my angel on this paper i'm not your angel you are mine cause children can't die before there parents i love more then you will ever know and i can't tell you i love you enough you mean everything to me and i'm so pround of you you know that feeling you always get when you see me achieve somthing i want like in swimming or lifeguarding or school i think i know what that feels like know and when i grow up i would love to be like you cause you are the greatiest person i have ever met i can't thank you enough for everything you've given me morals a future thank you for always caring. If i lost you today i know i would be okay because you will always be in my heart but god gave us both a very special gift today he gave you another chance at life and me a mom once again who i don't know what i would do without we all love you the people who don't even know you as well as i do love you cause they can't help but fall in love with your positive energy and joy that you bring to tho's around you i look forward to another day with you cause another day with you is another day that i become more like you. Love, Ashley P.s i won't forget to feed the dogs while your gone although the will be okay cause your not going to be gone that long but still i won't forget.

Hello Deanna - <b>Congratulations</b> on your upcoming surgery date!   You'll find the changes that follow, nothing short of a miracle. For 20 years I prayed and hoped for a "second chance" in life to be healthier and thinner - I never thought I would get that chance, but I did, and now <u>so will you</u>.  My humble advice?  Walk as much as possible after surgery.  As your body begins to heal make sure to get in your protein, even if it means plugging your nose and chugging back the protein drinks in baby [pouch] gulps.  Vitamins need to be chopped, minced or crushed... whatever it takes to get them in daily, no exceptions, YOU are worth it.   Also, let's not forget your new best(est) friend, water.  It is SO important to get your minimum 64 oz in daily. One final thing, remember to <b>CELEBRATE</b> all the special moments along the way, big or small.  Too many people focus on the <i>number</i>, ie. pounds lost.  There are so many "moments" to look forward to and to embrace along the way - don't let any of them slip by.   Enjoy your new healthier life, you've earned it!!    Hugs and smiles -
