I am in shock!!!

May 31, 2012

My in-laws have blessed us. They are going to pay for my surgery - as a gift!!! I am so blessed!!! I was getting discouraged, especially after an emergency room visit 2 days ago for severe back pain. The doc basically said, "lose weight and then strengthen your back".  I was feeling sorry for myself. Then they called this morning. It is surreal still. Until I am lying on the operating table I won't believe it. Yikes. I so appreciate all the good info I have received on this site. I pray that soon I will be able to give tips/advice based on experience too. 
So...August 10 is the big day. I would have scheduled it asap. But I don't have my passport. I just sent off for it yesterday...just in case I was able to come up with the funds for the surgery. Also...I want to go on missions trip with my church. See...its funny how things work out. 
I have been planning on RNY since last October. I was preparing for the vitamins, diet, etc. now I have to change my research to the sleeve. Oh...and Alison..if you read this...I want to do a triatholon or tough mudder in so-cal next year. (I am originally from SF bay area. My dad is in Oceanside, my in-laws are in Hemet). Yeah baby!!!
Again..thanks all for sharing the good, bad and ugly. You have been a blessing to me. I am sure I will have more and more questions as the date gets closers.
