ANNETTE~ Sorry to hear about your father~~ I know how upset you must be~~ "It is not easy to live life sometimes~ And face the world with a smile when you're crying inside ~It takes a lot of courage to reach down inside yourself ~Hold on to that strength that's still there ~And know that tomorrow is a new day with new possibilities ~But if you can hold on long enough to see this through ~You'll come out a new person-stronger,

I Said a Prayer of Healing for you -- body, mind and soul -- That God would bring you comfort to restore and make you whole. I prayed you'd be surrounded by His awesome love and healing, Dispelling all anxiety or pain you might be feeling. Finally, I prayed you'd be uplifted by His grace, and feel yourself enfolded in the peace of His embrace. Wishing you all the best on your journey for a healthy happy new you. Godspeed. Maureen

Annette I really liked Dr. Pepper before surgery and I too had headaces when I tried stopping so I didn't stop I just drank less and then after surgery I had to deal with the headaches and the surgery aches. I know its hard (because I could not do it myself ha ha) but trust me when I say you would rather ween yourself off them now then go cold turkey afterwards and deal with it then.

Having wls is a big decision to make.....You have made the right one. CONGRATS!!.. Heres to an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery. It is the best thing I could have ever done for myself and I bet you'll feel the same way too. Remember small bites, chew like theres no tomorrow, get tons of H2O, and dont forget that protein! Happy re-Birthday!!!!

Annette...time is sure flying by now isn't it? I have 25 days left...hopefully. I'll be doing my final pre-op testing done this Wed. with the doctors appt. on Thurs. Will know then for sure if 3/21/03 is a go. Don't think there will be any hidden reason not have have surgery. Have been visiting my PCP every 3 months for years. Are you looking forward to summer as much as I am? My parents will be staying at a campgrounds with a huge built in pool for the summer...you know where I'll be. We don't live very far from Lake Erie either. Hey, take care and hope your time will fly!!!!!! The other Shock, Dawn
