Hi all! My surgery is tomorrow, and I'm incredibly calm and content. I feel like I've been preparing to give this gift to myself for so long, and now I know it's my time. If you get a chance, say a quick prayer for me, or send out some positive thoughts into the universe, whatever works for you. I'd appreciate any help my AMOS family can provide!

Hi....I really wish you luck with your upcoming surgery. I had mine on May 15th and it has been the most wonderful thing I have ever done for myself. If you wanna talk or ask me anything at all please feel free to email me. I will pray that your recovery is safe and complication-free.HUGS*

OHH Claire, Your time is close, and I just want to take this time to wish you all the best. I know everything feels crazy now with your date rapidly approaching, but just remember when you get nervous or have pain, to focus on the other side, the future. Even if its focusing on next week, or next month. Try to keep calm, and take slow relaxing breaths. I just found out today, that I will be at BTC on Wedsnday, so I will be there with Lisa praying for you and a speedy recovery. Claire, you can do it you inspired me. I'll see you on the other side. Luv and soft hugs Roz

I've got 5 days to go till my Open RNY, and I'm more excited and nervous than I thought I would be. I've been blessed with very supportive family members and friends, a wonderful husband who completely agreed with David's post, and post-ops that are new friends. Now if I could just believe in myself as much as they do - that's the challenge. I feel like I'm ready for all of the details (packed my slippers & lip balm, doing my breathing exercises & chewable vitamins, and taken care of my living will and emergency phone numbers), but if anyone has words of advice about the emotional issues that we face in the weeks and months after surgery, please feel free to share. That is the part that makes me the most nervous! Thanks....
