Default New Post Ops!

Bridget and I visited, late, last night our newest post ops Jennifer and Maria. They both looked amazing! It was so good to see them laughing and smiling and talking about their experience, what they remember anyway.

While with Jennifer we all showed our badges of honor. It was so cool to see a 7 mo., 6 week, and new post ops scars. I was looking at Bridgets saying wow, you can barely see them, yours are lower than mine, will they get that small and light in color?, etc.

They were both as sweet as can be. I wish you both an uneventful next week!

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."

Default Visit at the hospital

Kim and Bridget,
I'm sorry I missed you guys last night at Pomerado. I had a nice visit with Jen and we were racing around the halls with her pod mate, all dragging the IV's, etc. haha Jenniemae took her home this morning and she is doing really good. She is so excited to be a loser and get her life back. As a family with three losers in it, we can expect to live a long, heathier and thinner life together. Thanks again for the visit, Jen told me this AM that it was cool to have losers come in to visit and offer support. But... the last time I offered to show my scars, I got slapped and arrested!!! hahaha Just kidding. I hope to see you all at the next post op support group meeting in Poway. Jen will be us as well. BFN

Default Jim,

LOL You crack me up! Jennifer did look good enough last night to run around the halls with you. I'm glad to know that she made it home this morning and is doing good.

I can't wait to meet you and your wife. Can't wait to see you too Jennifer.
