I would like to say thank you to each and everyone that has sent us their blessings with the news of our engagement. It means so much coming from such a wonderful group of people. But I would like to clear a couple of things up.....about Rons surgery, he had to be at the hospital at 8:45 this morning, his actual surgery was to start at 10:45. I do not know how long the procedure takes or recovery time, but they told him he would probably be home by late afternoon. The worry wort that I am, I had to call the same day surgery people and make sure they knew he is allergic to penecilian and that he has a heart murmur, because I know they take special precautions with patients with heart murmurs. Of course they were already aware of these things. Second, about Ron's post of our happy news, we are engaged, we do intend to spend our lives together living in the mountains of MOntana or Wyoming and we are going out there for a week after we attend the gathering, what I don't think was exactly clear is the fact that the original reason for traveling out there at that time is so that we may exchange our vows in the Beartooth Mountains of Montana (my most favorite place in the whole world), I felt Ron made it sound like we were just vacationing that week and its so much more. Third, Ron stated that we had known each other for a long time, approx. 18 years and that is true, but we hadn't had contact for the last 17 years. I ran across him just 4 short months ago on MySpace. We used to ride the school bus together and that was exactly what I first asked him, " Hey, didn't we ride the school bus together? " and that started it all. After 5 days, he said he loved me and after 4 weeks he proposed. I had no idea exactly what I was getting myself into, with his situation and I had never heard of LBD. Well, I wouldn't change a thing and I wish you could all meet Betty, what an incredible lady she is. I really wish I could have known her before LBD. Now for my apology....a few months ago you may remember a very scared and concerned girl asking for help from this group, worried about her boyfriend and all the stress and health concerns she had. Well this girl also thanked everyone in this group because she knew that her boyfriend talked often with this group and the group was very helpful for him, his support, his lifeline. What this girl didn't know at that time was that there were only really 2 men that ever post to the group, Ron and Dann, and so you may or may not know that I was the infamaous Holly . I want to say how sorry I am for portraying myself as someone I wasn't and that I thought I could fool anyone. Ron knew the truth less than 24 hours after Hollys first post. I am truly sorry, I was so frightened of LBD at that time and scared to death for Ron. But I know now that Ron is so strong and he knows exactly what he is doing and what is best for Betty, he will know when it is time for the next step. I have no doutbs now and support his decisions 100%, and couldn't be happier being apart of his life and Bettys. Two amazing people! I do hope that you can all find it in your hearts to forgive me for what I have done. At the same time, thank you for all that you have done and said, for Ron, for me and for Betty.
