Laurie:

Can you believe how time has flown? I remember when I was waiting

for surgery, time seemed to grind to a halt. Then post-op, it has

seemed to fly at an ever faster rate. I can't believe it's been 3

years for me. Yikes!

Happy Re-birthday! Ain't it a kicker to be thought of as sexy? I

still am surprised when someone finds me attractive. I hope the

joyful surprise of being found attractive never wears off for you or

me. It is SO terrifying, yet so incredibly life-affirming. It's

like going to an amusement park we never knew existed, yet wow,

there's lots of fun to be had in Sexyland. Guess it's like riding a

roller coaster. Sometimes it makes you a bit queezy, yet most times

it simply takes your breath away, and you wanna get right back on for

another ride. It blows me away.

I hope you're enjoying your new life.

Thanks Francisco! I can't believe it's been a year

for me or three for you! Yes, time goes by a lot

faster post op than it does pre!

Yanno, when someone tells me I'm looking good or even

great, I thank them. When someone says I'm sexy or

beautiful, I just laugh. I can't buy into that.

Maybe if I ever get a TT, I'll feel better about my

appearance, but that's not in the realm of possibility

at this point. I am happy about how far I have come,

though, and that my blood pressure issues have

resolved. I still want the stamina to run, and I'm

working on that.

Thanks again, sexy!

Laurie

I don't want to put a damper on any celebration and I also wish

Laurie the best, but I just HATE referring to the date of surgrey as

a " re-birthday " ! I am me; I am not my weight, large or small; I was

a person of value before I had surgery and I wanted to extend that

valuable life. I was neither born nor reborn with WLS. An

anniversary worth celebrating? Sure. A rebirthday? Load of bull!

RandyIt's just a way to celebrate life has gotten better. Anniversary, Birthday, Re-birthday, everyone has the right to celebrate each thing in there life the way they wish. Christmas is one thing to one person, another to someone else and some don't believe in it at all. Each has their own opinion, but shouldn't step on that person's boundaries just because of how someone what's to do things. There's really not a right or wrong way here, so this is something in life you should just let roll off you back my friend. We shouldn't try to make a big deal out of everything, or life is to stressful. Hope you're doing well. Take care.

Randy, I didn't refer to it as a rebirthday. I called

it my pouch's birthday, which i feel is accurate.

Thanks,

Laurie

That's right Laurie If the world wasn't made up of different type people, what a boring place it would be. So we all have differences and make mistakes, as a good person we should over look the small things that don't really effect us personally. Take care. Donna JLLLORY@... wrote: Well said, Donna.

I know you didn't, Laurie, which is why I did not make the rply to

your post, but to Rose's where she called it that. Happy birthday to

your pouch!

Well Donna I did not mean to offend, but I think some ways of

thinking are harmful. Not Laurie's but the pther I commented on.

BTW, Christmas is Christmas wheether or not I celebrate it, but

unless I make a conscious choice to mark my surgery anniversary as

my re-birthday, no one else will send me a card, or flowers. We all

experience changes in our own ways, but am I less if I weigh more? I

weigh an artificially-maintained 210 pounds due to my cancer

treatment, and I try to gain more weight by exercising and replacing

fat with muscle mass. I'll lose it all when I come off the feeding

tube, which will not make me better, either. It will make me weaker

and maybe kill me. Should I celebrate the removal of my tube - which

is the material thing I want most in the world, no matter the

consequences, as my " un-birthday " ? I would think that too morbid.

Anyway, I've beaten the horse to death here, everyone, as you say,

can make their own choice, In any event, a year out is Laurie's very

happy occasion to celebrate and I thank her for sharing with us.

RandyI only wish you to be well. I do understand what you mean about birthday or re-birthday, but everyone has the right to celebrate their journey any way they wish. We will email anyone to congratulate them on their one year surgery anniversary so call it better than birthday or re-birthday, but all meant well, some people just use different words. It doesn't make it right or wrong, it's just expressing happiness for the person who is doing well on they journey. No different than sending a prayer for someone who needs it at difficult times. Now this is done. I really only hope the best for you, and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers during these hard times. Take care. Let the small stuff of life go.
