I'd like to thank you all for your support and wonderful words of encouragement. I know all your prayers helped me, because when I hit a rough spot in the Hospital...those prayers and my relationship with my creator helped me feel I was in the safest place and the safest hands. I had lost a bit of blood, not really sure exactly how...but needless to say I had to receive a blood transfussion on Tesday. I have vague recolections here and there about the 2 days following my surgery. I am pleased to say that everyday I was visited by Dr. Foote & Matt his assistant. I was impressed by the staff on hand at Blogget. I was given top notch care. They know what they're doing there. I did have to admantly ask to keep my IV drip running until I was properly released as I wanted to be sure I had a life line running incase I needed more blood. 2 units was enough for me, but I felt better being safe. Besides I hate getting IV's. Anyways I was released on Thursday and my 3 hour ride home was very difficult to say the least, but now I'm home and trying hard to relax. Thanks again...Not sure when I'll feel well enough to get back online. I'm quite sore right now. Many hugs to all of you~

Hiya Everyone~ This is Jenn here...Thank you all for all your loving words of encouragement! I am also thankful for all of your prayers! My husband & I are off to Grand Rapids tomorrow (Sunday the 4th) to check into the Renucci Hospitality House. Better to be nearer the Hospital than 3 hours away and trying to wake up really early to travel there for my surgery. I am nervous & excited all at once. I can't believe my time has come for WLS. It's a very surreal feeling to say the least. I'm basically numb! At any rate~ I will do my best to keep you all informed when I return home. Onward toward the next steps in this journey...God speed everyone! Loads of (((HUGS)))~ Jenn
