i learned that the surgery is not as bad as we think--although it is

good to be prepared....that the staff actually make you walk to the

surgery room...that the hospital stay is not that bad....we talked

about protein shakes--what they liked....that our hair will thin out

most likely even if we get alot of protein--for me that was the

hardest thing to hear....they talked about the conference and how the

plastic surgeon was great....i felt really comfortable, everyone was

nice....i will keep on going because it made such a difference with

how i feel just overall...it is sooo true we need the support...

Dama The support is great before and after, then at some point your information will be important to someone else. So the support groups benefit everyone in some way. Take care.
