<b>I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY~*~ I said a prayer for you today And know God must have heard- I felt the answer in my heart Although He spoke no word I didn't ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn't mind, I asked Him to send treasures Of a far more lasting kind, I asked that He'd be near you At the start of each new day, To grant you health and blessings And friends to share your way. I asked for happiness for you In all things great and small, But it was for His loving care I prayed the most of all. (unknown author) FROM MY HEART TO YOU~*~Hugs~*~</b>

HEY EVRYONE!!! I had my revision surgery (open RNY Gastric Bypass)on Friday morning the 21st and was released from the hospital yesterday evening the 24th! I had expected a longer surgery as I was a revision from gastric stapling 23 years ago, but it was only 3 hours! I was up and walking by the afternoon of the 21st and I believe the incentive I had to get better quickly has helped me in my recovery. So far so good! I try and walk after every meal and I am sipping fluid constantly. I cannot say how excited I am about everything. Thanks go out to my official angel "JO", Sue A.(who is another of Dr. Stoner's revision patients), my friends, my family both here and at home, and my DH......he was right there for me when I truely needed him!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!
