Dear Lori,

How wise of you to consider the " What If's " and plan accordingly. It never

occurred to me to write letters to my daughter or family or to go through

scenarios with my hubby.....My rose colored glasses were firmly in place and

I never doubted for a moment that everything would be " hunky-dory " .

Hindsight being 20-20, I can see now where all you describe would be great!

Hang in there. I truly believe I made the right decision, problems and all

and even though the going was tough for me, especially between months 3-5

and 8-11 I am still thankful for the changes this surgery has brought to my

life. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us posted.
