Hello Everyone Thought i would post here too so that you could send her some of that wonderful Amos support <br> Just letting you know that my sister Valerie is having a very rough time right now. She can't keep anything down and is heading into the hospital. Dr Ayers is on call so she will get to see him. She could use all the prayers and good vibes you can send her way right now.

I want you all to know how proud I am of my little sister Valerie!!! (yes she really is my sister) She has done so well. She is 10lbs from goal and looks beautiful. She is no longer classified as MO, or Obese or even overweight!!!! she is now classified as "Normal" (as normal as Val can get hehehe). She had a rough time, what with being pregnant and all, but she has a beautiful healthy (thank you God) Son, and is getting back to health herself. A reminder to all women out there. MAKE SURE YOUR SURGEON DOES A PREGNANCY TEST BEFORE SURGERY. No matter what. Val was told she could not have any more children and was 4 weeks pregnant when she had her surgery.

After 4 ultrasounds all saying she was having a girl, My sister Valerie, who had wls in November and was 4 weeks pregnant and didn't know it, was safely delivered this evening (July 13) of a BOY!!!!!!!!!!!! He is tiny, only 5lbs 3oz, but he is perfect. Valerie is thrilled but they have no idea what they will be naming him. As most of you know he was supposed to be a girl and his name was going to be Brianna Faythe, but thats out. Can't name a little boy Brianna, and they don't want to name him Brian Jr. Valerie is doing just fine and had an easy delivery. She is at Scarborough General Hospital. I can't wait to see him, I have her youngest daughter here and she is asleep. I tryed to wake her up to tell her she has a baby brother not a baby sister but she is too asleep to understand hehehehehe. Im so excited. Now I have 4 Nephews hehehehehehehehe /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\ happy dancing all around the room!!!
