AnnMarie.......so very glad to hear that you are home and feeling better. I have a new date, May 25th. Talk to you soon. Can't wait to hear about your weight loss progress. Keep me posted when you are feeling up to it. You are an inspiration to me! Love, Angela

Just wanted to let everyone know that AnnMarie is home and doing VERY well I swear, she absolutely amazes me. Before she left the hospital, she was up to six (6) laps around the corridors and was even starting to stray into other areas of the hospital. What an inspiration. You better be good girl, and not overdo. Love, Your Angel

Hi AnnMarie, I hope you were able to come home from the hospital today & that you will be feeling much better real soon. God Bless You.

I just spoke to AnnMarie. She's still in the hospital. We thought she was going to be discharged from the hospital yesterday but she started running a temperature - 101.something. The doctor thought it was coming from her lungs but they seem to be OK. Today her temp is down to 99 and she's hoping she'll get to go home later this afternoon. Except for the fever, she's feeling pretty good. Said she was up to three laps around the hospital corridors. Let's keep our fingers crossed that the fever doesn't come back & that she gets to go home. Way to Go, AnnMarie! Love, Nancy G.

Phewww, do I feel better! I went over to see AnnMarie in the hospital on my lunch hour today and she looks absolutely fantastic! I couldn't believe it. For one day post-op, she really was doing OK. She says shes feeling pretty good. She said she's got discomfort along the top of her abdomen that's very similar to the discomfort she felt along the bottom of her abdomen when she had her C-sections. Doesn't have much of an appetite but I could see from her tray that she did have a little jello (yum)and drank some cranberry juice. She's lucky in that her sister and her husband took off this week to take care of her and her kids. And she's spoken to her children on the phone so they're feeling so much more assured that Mom's alright. Seeing her makes me all that more anxious for my own surgery. I also spoke by email to Angela Harlan today and I'm so pleased that things are working out for her. What a sweet and wonderful person. You know how everyone always says that when God takes away one of your senses, He makes the others more acute. Well, I've got my own theory... when people get heavier, they develop more personality and more caring than those who have never suffered. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not putting down thin people by any means. I just mean that I can't get over how caring this WLS community is. Thanks everyone. And special thanks dear Lord for all Your grace and blessings. Love, Nancy G.
