I keep a pre-op picture in my purse just in case I need a reminder to continue to make smart, healthy choices.
It truly is an amazing journey and I wish everyone awaiting surgery and may still be dealing with some of these issues know that there truly is a light at the end of the tunnel. You too can have your life back.
