Countdown to my crossover

Just relax and enjoy your last few weeks. Try to start exercising a little more, so you will feel up to walking after surgery. Go shopping for things you will need after surgery. Take Gas X meltaway strips. They didn't give me anything for gas, but they let me take the ones I brought. I have been through almost two boxes since Monday...but have had no major gas related pain.

Dr. Schirmer is a great guy, you're in good hands! Best of luck to you, and congratulations!

The Gas X strips were not on my list, but they are now.  Is the gas really that bad?  I have all the confindence in the world of Dr. Schirmer's ability, it's my part in making this work that I'm concerned about. Jackie

Congrats !!  I'm your neighbor in Waynesboro. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you. I may not be your typical specimen, but I have not had one minute of trouble in the 13 months since my surgery. I'm doing great. I love my life and I'm happier than I've ever been. Hang on tight! The ride is just beginning ! Love, Jennifer
