Hi Alice!! Thanks for e-mailing me with words of encouragement..Hopefully, I can give you some. Hang in there and hopefully your surgery will go on as planned. I was not really given a definite "yes" for July 15th until additional blood work came back which did show my iron count was now in the acceptable level..(I had orginially got it taken 4 days into my period) won't do that again. Haha!! Anyway, that was only on Thursday/or Friday morning before Monday when I had a date..But your surgeon sounds busy..they all are..I guess. Well, wishing you the best and i'll pray for an unevenful surgery for you. I had my lap..only 6 very small incisions. but it took the doctor about 5 hours..they take longer. but he is perfecting this and is the top surgeon in his field in this area. Best of Luck to you. terri k

Hi Alice "Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, any one can start from now and make a brand new ending." "Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult." ~ Julia Cameron "The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. That block of granite is often nothing more than a decision." ~ Thomas Carlyle "Being yourself is not remaining what you were, or being satisfied with what you are. It is the point of departure." ~ Sydney Harris It's never too late to be what you might have been. ~ George Eliot May you always have an Angel by your side. Watching out for you in all the things you do. Reminding you to keep believing in brighter days.
