Hello to all and thanks for all the letters. Tonight finds me a little nervous. I go to the hospital for me pre op tomorrow. I have to be there at 930 and then it is off to the lung doctor at 1. I have to do the upper GI, blood work up, chest x ray and who knows what else. I will be glad to get that part over with. I guess tomorrow will tell the tale. I don't know if they will give me my go ahead or if it will take a few days. I went to my Mardi Gras organization spring dance last night and had a wonderful time. My best friend (2 months out of surgery) went with me. While we were there the president of our group got a call, seems one of her friends passed away ........ she had just had the surgery on Friday. Talk about scaring the day lights out of me. I got over it and had a great evening. I love to dance and for a little while I could see myself several sizes smaller, dancing on the dance floor. That was a good thought. Our big Mardi Gras ball is in Feb. and if I lose weight like everyone else......... well I should be to goal by then. My what a wonderful thought. I can only hope that all my dreams will come true and I will be doing a happy dance. :) To be a size 12 would be like a miracle. My, what a great thought. To dance like I never have done before. AWESOME thought. I am rambling so I better close for now. I will update you all tomorrow ........ when all the testing is over. Until then ....................my love Theresa

Theresa- I was sorry to read your post, and know how upset you must be. You'll be in my prayers for an uneventful surgery and a quick recovery. God bless you.

I hope and pray that your surgery is complication free and that you have a speedy recovery. I will be joining you on the losing side on June 11th so I know how excited and nervous you are. I am sure that you will be just fine and that you'll do great! Peace and love.

Sorry about the mistake just now, (there will be a post with just my name, no comments) this is the first time I have ever posted to a sugery page, but after reading your post I had to tell you that first off your mom should not have told you this before your big day! how mean! and also, trust in the lord and KNOW that dreams are just dreams, a persons fears coming out while they sleep, your aunt is proably afraid something will happen to you, but...right now you can't be worried about her fears when you have your own, and no matter how much we are prepared for this sugery at some point those fears do come out, so what I am trying to say is hang in there and when you start feeling afraid think of the wonderful things in life that you have to look forward to and the better health that you are going to have, and get those bad thoughts out of your head''you have nothing to fear but fear itself'' please remember those words, and good luck to you I will be looking for your angel's post or yours if you don't have an angel, if you don't its not the end of the world, I made it through sugery without one and I did just fine, hang in there and know you are thought of.

It breaks my heart to hear the fear you are feeling. You have a goal and you have made it this far. God has been with you to get approval and he will continue to hold you up throughout this process of reaching your goal. Don't let the fear get you down. My prayers will continue for us all.

Theresa, my thoughts and prayers are with you. Do only what you choose to do and be empowered by it. May God Bless and Keep you.

Dreams are just that, dreams. Keep your faith in the Lord and he will see you through this and over to the losing side. Remeber, we are at risk by staying the way we are so having the surgery is giving us the chance to have a healthy life again. I will keep you in my prayers. Keep the faith. All is well. Don't let fear hold you down. There are beautiful times ahead!

Hello to all. Today finds me down and out. I was all excited last night but ....... oh how things can change in a flash. My mother went to her sister's beauty shop, to get her "hair pressed", as I call it and boy what horrible words she brought back. Seems that she and my aunt were talking and my aunt told her that my grandmother (which she was refering to my mother's mom)came to her in a dream and told her that one of our family members was going to die soon. Wow, how those words have shaken me up. I am so scared. I go for my pre op on Monday and we will go from there. In making my decision to have the surgery I said, if the Lord allows my insurance to approve it ........ then I will go through with it. Now ....... I have said, it all my pre ops are fine ......... then ......... I will do it. So many people have been so kind to me on my journey. You have given me words of hope and encouragement. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sharon, my angel, you are just that and I look forward to meeting you on the phone soon, by the way I have tried to call you several times ........ guess your life is as busy as mine. Any, all ......... please continue to pray for me as I am in a hole and need to climb out. God bless each of you. :) Theresa
