Ray, your day will soon be here. I am sure that it cannot come fast enough, right! Many have been down the path you are setting out on. We are all happy and healthier now than we have been in years! This is a GOOD thing you are doing for yourself! Remember the rules, protein first, water, and move around...follow them and you will be a big loser before you know it! All my best wishes to you on your upcoming day! May you have peace over your decision! Stacy

Hi Ray, I will probably feel the same way when my turn comes, as everyone does. It's a big step and it takes much courage! But I look at it this way...if I don't have the surgery, I could die young or have more and more medical problems...can hardly walk the way it is! And whatever your co-morbidities are, they aren't going away without this lifesaving surgery! So, as my Dad used to say, "You pays your money and you takes yer chances!" I think your odds are GOOD on doing well in surgery and starting a new wonderful life......you'll find out who you were meant to be. God bless your surgeon and you. Let us hear from you from the other side! HUGS! Carol Percel

Ray, What you are feeling is something I think we all go through at one time or another as pre-ops. You are not going crazy, don't worry. This is going to be an exciting journey for you, and we will be with you every step of the way. My thoughts are with you. Melody DeRose LAP-RNY 09-18-02

Hi Ray, I just wanted to tell you to hang in there. Everyone is here for you before and after your surgery. I understand your feelings because of your mother, mine had the same surgery 25 years ago in Chicago and has many health problems but the bottom line is, her feelings are she would do it all over again in a heartbeat! The RNY is much safer, that is why the insurance companies are paying for the procedure. I really feel you are the one to make the decision to have it done or not, but you have to live with the choice you make. This site has so much support and kindness to offer you no matter what your decision will be. Relax and pray then turn it over to the Lord.
