Well, here it is....just 12 hours to go!! I am so excited and not nervous even yet!! Wait till that alarm goes off in the morning!!! You know the cartoon where the dog sneaks up behind the cat, barks and the cat jumps upside down onto the ceiling, all claws extended to hold him up???!!! Well, that'll be me at about 5am!!!! LOL I sure want to thank all my dear friends that have sent me messages of love, support and encouragement!! Last month when my first surgery date was cancelled, it was the folks here and in each of my other 2 support groups that got me thru it!! I truly was ready to call it quits at one point, but I was ever so lovingly reminded, that a Greater Power was at work in my life!! And how wise He is!! My teenage daughter that had struggled with the idea of me having surgery, has come around to be one of my greatest strengths and supports!!! Thank you ALL and may God be with each of you till we meet here again!!! Take care and God Bless!! Love,

Andrea, I know what you are feeling. My mother in law called to tell me that I was being selfish and not thinking of my family. my family is second in this journey because I have to be selfish this once and think of myself. Is it selfish to want to see your kids graduate and start their lives and even see your first grandchild or merely just to walk around the block without breathing like it is your last breathe or sleep with out waking up with a sore throat from snoring. Then yes I am being selfish. But in the long run I know it will benefit us all. and will make life so much more enjoyable. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Stacy
