    Hi Annie, all's well here. I am so happy I have done this and just getting ready to do it, I've lost a fair bit already. Hope you are well. But now I am going to take advantage of a beautiful Spring day for a nice walk.

    Hi Annie

    Thank you so much for the message you posted for me!

    I have been away on holiday in Denmark with Dennis and came back on Sunday - still trying to catch up with everything

    Yes, I can't believe it, 8kg away from my goal

    Your date is coming closer quickly - how are you feeling?

    Dear AnnieH,
    How thoughtful of you to send me a message. I thank you. Here, far from SA, it's about half past seven and I'm the only one up so far. I am picking my son up at the airport after making my last stop at my office. I just posted some blather about fear and anxiety to a woman named, Caran who's a nurse having this surgery on Friday. And I realize that I too am freaking out a bit...but it seems there's still enough preparations to keep me busy and that lowers the anxiety some. Anyway, thanks for your kind words and wishes. It does me such good to have you, Annie H, be the first one to greet me this morning, as I am thinking of my AnnieH a lot these recent days...May your music always be beautiful, Annie, and again, I thank you for your greeting and blessing.

Wow!
I decided to initially not tell anybody about my surgery considerations until I had made up my mind about going through with it. I was concerned about the stigma attached to it - especially here in South Africa where their is pathetically little info about it! After I had made my decision and went to the info session I decided it was time to share with a select few. So, my best friend was the first to know - and she was amazing. She has committed to supporting me -emotionally, as a shopper...

I thought having to wait an entire week waiting for the doctors rooms to schedule my appointments was torture... until I received it and saw I have to wait another 4 months to actually see the surgeon! I have been driving myself nuts and can see myself getting a brand spanking new ulcer waiting this long... did I mention I am very impatient on a good day???!!!

(Psychologist evaluations still need to be scheduled)
So I see the nutritionist first - 12 Feb 2008

In these very very early days of my decision to at least investigate GBS, I am shocked to be in such emotional turmoil... and I haven't even been to the info session yet!! I have read blogs and books, the wonderful successes, the complications and hardships.
I've decided to put aside my worries about the risks and complications, for now, and focus on why I want to go ahead with this. So this is a list of my dreams (some are very superficial I know but at least they're honest and real!!)...
