Grandma is up there in Heaven and I am still scared about my upcomming surgery!

[Guest guest]

Well I have told many of you that I had a dying grandma well she

passed away Thursday April 24, 2003 at 11:15p.m. She is out of pain

and no longer suffering. She is with grandpa and the rest of our

loved ones. I am ok the viewing will probally not be until Sunday

and the funeral Monday. I have a wedding to go to tomorrow and an

awards banquet tonight. I have nothing to wear because I gained

back 60lbs I had to borrow an outfit from my mom. I went dress

shopping but I was not going to buy a big new dress that I will not

wear again plus I don't have the money. I was a 12-14 in a dress

now I am up to an 18. It sucks it really sucks. I am trying not

too eat everything in site this weekend.

I am also very uneasy about my fistula repair/revision that's less

than a month away. I can't believe I have to start all over with

the food. The good thing is I don't weigh 342 this time I am about

210 so it should be easier right the recovery I mean? I don't know

I got approved for a six day stay and going to have a big open

incision and a few drains. I just hope this works and I can get my

tool back. I need my tool so I can start recovering from my eating

disorder. Is there anything I can do to make my recovery easier? I

know walk all the time, take my vitamins, take it easy don't push my

self too hard or too fast.

Kristy,

I am so sorry to hear about the death of your grandmother.

Having lost both of mine, I know how painful it can be. I do wish you

will in the upcoming months. It sounds like you will be pretty busy this

weekend. I know for me that was a good thing right after my grandmothers

died. It kept me from crying 24/7. If you need anything, let us know.

Kristy,

I'm so sorry about your Grandmother. You've had a lot to handle

recently, but I know you'll come through all this just fine. As for

your fistula surgery, I can tell you that my recovery from the

transection surgery was so much easier than my original surgery, not

just because it was lap and my original surgery was open, but because

I now knew what to expect and what to do. I wasn't worried about

never being able to eat again, I just wanted to get back to losing

again. This is a setback, a royal pain in the butt, but you'll come

through with flying colors, and soon enough it will be a distant

memory.

Good luck, sweetie, and hang in there!

Hugs,

in NJ
