Topic: Size 20-24 clothes desperately needed
Hello everyone,
So many of you were incredibly nice a few months back, donating your size 26/28 clothes. Every single day I wear something someone sent to me from this website, and I am SOOOO grateful!!! However, as I continue to shrink, so does my wardrobe.
Now that I'm a 22/24, I have very little spring/summer clothes. Does anyone have anything in sizes 20-24 they might be willing to send to me? I mostly need shorts, jeans, (not tapered leg), trendy tops, and maybe a couple of business-i****ems. I'm young, and have a very "young" sense of style. I will send you a pre-paid UPS label, so all you have to do is place the label on any box that fits, and pop it in the mail. PLEASE let me know if you could be of assistance. I would be forever grateful. Just email me with your name & address, and I'll send you the pre-paid label.
PS - For all those amazing people who donated their beautiful clothes a few months back, I am still wearing some of it, and for those items that no longer fit, I've passed them on to other woman of size. I thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Topic: RE: Gallbladder issues
OK, I don't want to make anything worse for you, but you did ask for experiences. Had my RNY in December and they took the gallbladder at the same time (lap). RNY was fine, but three days after surgery I was back in the hospital with horrible pain. Took them awhile to figure it out and turns out it was bile peritonitis. I believe my Dr. allowed the student to do the gallbladder part of surgery(based on how many times he came to visit me during my extra five day stay in the hospital and kept promising to get me help). They finally determined that the clips they used to seal off the bile duct had slipped off allowing bile to fill my abdomen. From what I understand this was a rare complication. It is best to get the thing done. I had lived with gallbladder disease for more than ten years previous to this and even with complications, I am glad to have it gone. I wish you luck and hope you have a competent Dr.
