Default Only 3 more sleeps Carrie....

Thinking about you a nd hoping you are doing okay till Monday. have they decided to put you in a little early and get you fluffed up wiht fluid and vits before your surgery?

I hope so honey.... remember you may not feel too great right after surgery but hopefully very soon.

Keeping you in my prayers!

Yep, I will keep you all posted. I am set up to be the call person after surgery.... however, if her mom goes with her, I'll probably hear from her instead of the hospital. Either way, I'll let you all know as soon as I do. I plan on sitting by my phone all day.

Girl.. dont forget.. QUEEN SIZE... and willing to break a lease

Love you MORE THAN THAT!

Default Thinking about you... and Lisa...

Thinking about you and Lisa... a lot. It's funny how you can worry about and miss someone you've never actually met. You're on a lot of American and Canadian minds, dear...hope the surgery's as painfree as possible and that it resolves all this garbage that's been going on for far too long.

Carrie - Good Luck tomorrow! Lisa is right - its amazing how someone you've never met can be in your thoughts so much. I'm praying for you girl. I hope your surgery goes smoothly, that your recovery is as painless as possible and that this resolves all of your issues. I'm praying for you to come out of this a heathly painfree woman!
