Fran, thank you so much :-)  As I say so often, I've been blessed through this whole thing.  I can barely wait to get back into weight loss mode -- I want to lose another 20 pounds or so, but if I lose anything before being released, I'm gonna be in trouble with my Surgeons and Oncologists!  LOL  They adamant about maintaining my weight!  Time enough ahead to finish the losing, though, right?  Thank you for your continued support - it means so much :-)

You've been so supportive through this whole thing -- thank you very much.  It means a lot to me.  You're right -- I've been blessed beyond measure -- each day, I try to live in gratitude for everything I've been given.

Devon, thank you -- you've been here throughout this ordeal and I can't begin to tell you how much your posts have meant to me.  I'm so lucky to have people such as yourself in my life here on OH.  My blessings are many and I do feel so grateful for all of them.

I'm doing incredibly well -- my Surgeons just don't know what to do with me LOL  Then again, they might never have had a feisty little old Italian lady to cope with before!  LOL  My Primary Surgeon is Italian, though, so he should know how we are!  Hahahaha

Once released, I can go back into weight loss mode -- another 20 pounds, I think should do it.  Then in July, my trip to Las Vegas -- Alison is planning on coming out again -- last summer, she was in so much pain and I was facing this cancer crap, so we didn't get to paint the town HOT PINK!  We going to try to do it this coming July -- and maybe Jenn and Gabby will join in the fun............and maybe Judy and Nancy, too.  Want to join us?  We'd like to have a hunky handsome man around, don't ya know!!! 

Thank you again.............you have my love and hugs!  xoxox
