Hi Dana, I was reading messages from today and checked our your page. I'm having lap on Nov 11th and am just waiting, waiting and waiting! I've got 77 days to go! I'm hoping that the waiting is the worst part. Sounded like you were doing great. I'm 5'2" and weigh 260! Not my highest either but it's still pretty bad. Any suggestions you have to help me through the waiting would be great. How did you prepare for the surgery? Thanks!!!

Dana~~~Here's to you for taking the best steps you can to a super new & healthy life. {"I HAVE HEARD YOUR PRAYERS, I HAVE SEEN YOUR TEARS. SURELY, I WILL HEAL YOU." 2 KINGS 20:5} I pray our Lord and His angels be with you as you go through your surgery and recovery. May our Lord be with your surgeon and his staff, guiding their hands and minds during your surgery and recovery. {JESUS SAID, "I AM HERE. DON'T BE AFRAID."

Hi Dana! I will have you in my prayers! My surgery is scheduled for next Wed. I am so excited, but cannot wait to be on the other side.

Hi Dana! I see you have surgery tomorrow. Of course it's scary (and I wish I could help send those butterflies away), but if you've come this far -- and your profile shows you've been at it for some time -- you'll be fine! Just do some deep breathing, and think how much you've already learned about this process just by researching and waiting so long. Best of luck to you for a smooth recovery and great success! {{{Hugs!}}}

Good luck on your coming surgery. My prayers are with you, and hoping for an uneventful surgery, and a speedy, painfree recovery. Keep your focus on healing. Make sure you walk, and keep up your breathing exercise. YOU CAN DO THIS! See you on the other side.
