I love you.

Your posts are so thorough and detailed, and if you look at them just a

little bit sideways, always exactly right...

I will always remember you running down the hall the morning after surgery

to ask me just one more question.

God bless you and keep you through the next 6 weeks.

This is definitely the toughest time.

Imagine what you would be eating now without the surgery.

Honestly your posts make my day.

P.S. I still need that box of commas that you promised to send me.

The closest I got to salads was a pita at 's! LOL

Ooooh, I can guarantee I have no urge for any fast food

biscuits/meat/french fries/grease-of-the-day whatsoever now, though

the parfait sounds yummy. As we speak, I'm enjoying a

Weight-watcher's low-fat turkey and mashed potatoes dinner. It's

pretty good.
