It's totally official ... I have been APPROVED!!!!! Now I pray to get things in order for Mom this week and get her on the road to recovery so she can come home where she belongs. By then I should be recovered enough to care for her. The week is already full with things already scheduled. She should have her Ultra Sound done and possibly have had her surgery before my surgery on Monday. At least that's the way God has been handling everything ... not a single conflict in appointments for her or me. He is SOOOO great!!!!!!!!!! I know I wouldn't have even come close to where I am right now without His guidance. Thank you, Lord, for all you've done and all you will do.

Congratulations on your surgery date! I have some Zen Wisdom for you - Nothing exists but momentarily...One thing flows into another...observe things as they are, let everything go as it goes. This is to put everything under control in its widest sense. --- May God keep you close to his side as you travel your new journey. You will have ups and downs. You can always turn to us, your AMOS family, we will give support, comfort and encouragement. You will find this will be the best thing you could ever have done for yourself as well as your family. I know that was true for me. Keep us posted when you reach the "other" side. I pray for a speedy and easy recovery for you. Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly. We all like to see how we are doing!!! Make sure you take pictures. It’s great to see the new you emerge!!! Not to mention the look on YOUR face when you look at those pictures and compare them in a few months! It’ll be a BIG WOW!!! Please remember too, that this is a *tool* to use. Make sure you use it wisely. Choose the right foods and measurements wisely! Feel free to look at my profile and see my ups and downs and know I’d not change a thing with anything I’ve experienced. Everything was worth it! Good luck and God Bless!!! RNY 10/31/03 257/140 I’M AT GOAL!!!

My mother has some health issues and has been admitted to a rehab facility for an undetermined length of time. It depends on how quickly she can get her balance, strength and stability back. I am hoping she will be able to come home very soon. At the risk of sounding as if I am taking advantage of her situation, I called Dr. Valin's office to see if I could get a somewhat possible time frame as to when I could expect to get a date. I am told April 14th ... 3 weeks away. IF it can be done while Mom is in good hands and getting good care, it would take a load off my mind. If it's possible to have the surgery soon and at least a few days to recover, it would be a tremendous help. I know I'll need strength and health down the road when she REALLY needs my assistance. This surgery will give me that along with so many other things.
