Re: Late night ponderings--Dora

Dora,

I have to jump on this (unless I already did in me loritab induced

world) about what you wrote. Being just through it I can say it was

just the same with me. For weeks I laid in bed wondering if this

was what I needed to do. Heard all those who put me down or others

for even considering it. Now I had almost gone through is in 2002

but lost my Ins. and move/married so I just waited and learned

more. Its not like we went to the store and bought this surgery, we

definitely needed it for our health because nothing else was

working. So what I lost 30lbs this past year, don't know how I did

it except to bring in some fosterkids but I was still unhealthy and

the weight was starting to fluctuate again. Your similiaries were

right on with society and how things work. I just hope you are

finding each day a sort of celebration to a new and improved life

and when it gets here you've done it right...and for the right

reasons. I praise God daily for giving me this opportunity to

lengthen my life, give me time to enjoy other's and to hopefully

help those who are preparing like we are. Hope I got it all in

cause I am at the end of this and ... wondering...or

wandering...LOL!

Hugs,

Lou,

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I don't have my

computer at home hooked up yet. But thanks for the well wishes. This

is all a lot deeper than most people on the outside think. Together, we

will make it through this. Just 1 week till my surgery!!!
