Everyone gets an angel . . . you can't always see them, because sometimes, they are invisible. sometimes they are your pet when he kisses you . . . sometimes they are a small treasure you find . . . an angel might even be your friend. those angels are quiet, but what they are really saying is: "pink clouds! a good day is just around the corner." so if you begin to worry too much, just remember . . . somewhere an angel is looking out for you, too.

Hi Melinda, I too had a struggle to get my surgery date. My first visit with my surgeon was back on May 18th and about two weeks ago I finally got my surgery date of October 18th. You will be a month behind me. If we weren't nervous something would be wrong with our brain. This is a big decission and one that needs a lot of thought and consideration. I know it is the right and only one for me. I have been overweight all my life and weigh in at 260 lbs. I'm 56 years old and wish I had done it sooner as the past 10 years have been a real struggle. I had to give up my job working at a bank because I couldn't stand on my feet all day any more. My legs, back and blatter have nearly played out and the end of May I had a TIA (that is a minor stroke). I was lucky not to have any lasting effects from the stroke and knew then if I wanted to live a LONG happy and healthier life I had to have this surgery. I keep myself busy by filling the freezer with cooked food for my husband to eat while I recover and spend a lot of time E-Mailing other members of obesityhelp.com. I need to walk and get myself a little stronger for the surgery. Good luck and believe me after you get the date the time does go fast. Keep in touch.
