And SOOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!!! Jeez - I'd heard that the tummy tuck was harder physically than the gastric bypass and I can testify and will be a witness to THAT! I'm hurting, but am alert, mobile, and doing pretty well. Thank you so much for all of your prayers - I have definitely felt them! Michelle

Oh Kathy - I'm so sorry to hear of this report! My heart just breaks for you. Please know that I'm praying for you!!!! Hugs, Laurie

Got path report today. Margins aren't clear. I'm heading towards a mastectomy. Cancelled appointments with radiation oncologist and oncologist for next week. Made appointment with plastic surgeon for 2/12. Then she'll have to coordinate with breast surgeon and I'll get a surgery date. I'd be surprised if it is before mid-March but who knows... Nope, no game plan yet... Thanks for thinking of me! Hugs, Kathy

Just thinking of you today. How did your pathology report turn out yesterday??? Do they have a game plan in place for treatment now?? Laurie - still praying!!!!

Thanks Kathy..... I smoked for more years than I was obese..... and I wanted to have this surgery so bad that it was the only thing that was motivation enough to get me to stay quit. I tried SO MANY times to quit. Once I even quit for 8 years.... I'm so grateful for this surgery for more reasons than just quitting smoking. I needed to get HEALTHY. I needed to take the weight off. I was on so many medications..... for High blood pressure, cholest., and others... Jess. Now, i just need to find my smile............. the real one!!!! HOPE YOU ARE DOING BETTER, KATHY!!!!!
