The talk...
Apr 21, 2009
Since begining my WLS journey, I honeslty haven't had a a heart to heart talk with my dad about it. I didn't want to bring anything up until I had my facts together and til I knew for sure that this was something I needed to do. I knew that he knew about it since i did discuss it with my mother and she basically told him the news. I guess I was a bit afraid to hear what he had to say. Well today i went over and basically broke the news to him. I told him that I was having surgery on the 26th of May and wanted to know what and how he felt about it. He just asked me if i researched it and understood the outcome of it...of course i did and thats what i told him...although he insited that he wished i didnt go through with this that he was still behind me 100% as long as i knew what i needed to do to basically maintain a good health. I was realieved that he felt this way and jsut made me happy that he understood where I was coming from...It's like weight was lifted off my shoulders as I am getting prepared to loose the weight ....a huge sigh of relief!!
