Leesa,
You are such an asset to this forum. Of course you and your sweet heart will be in my prayers and on my mind the day of your surgery. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

2 nd precaution I will have two extra IV'S one in jugilar attery vein and one in wrist just incase we have any problems with my heart.
Please keep me in your prayers I just want to wake up and begin phase two!
I want you guys to know how special you are to me and I appreciate you all so much. I think about you all the time and I am so happy to have you in my life. You have all helped me so much!
Love you all!

Leesa,
It is so normal to be feeling scared. Heck, if you read back on my pre-op posts, I was a nervous pain in the rear and I felt like I didn't want to say anything or bother anyone. It was this family of friends who were there for me and to this day are my backbone.
I will be thinking of you and I just know you will be fine. If you ever want to talk, PM me and I will PM you. Email, too. I am here for support and feel without support, I wouldn't be where I am today.
Best of luck....try to keep yourself busy, so time flies.

Leesa honey.......you will do GREAT! I just know it! You don't worry about all the stuff that is out of your hands. Worry about waking up in a positive mindset and be read to fight this good fight dear. You have some work to do after you wake up for the first week or two, so get pumped for this! We'll all be here to hold your hand through hell week and then through the great transformation your body and mind will make. We love you here and will be all holding cyber hands around you that morning as you head down that road to join us on the other side and start your big adventure. You have wanted this so much and I am very thankful you are finally having it happen. I will be gone out of town and away from the computer, but I WILL be calling and checking on you. Lisa, please post as soon as you hear anything please, as I will be ringing Jen's or Duckie's phone off the hook to find out if something has been posted. I will not rest til I know you are out and doing fine. Good luck sweetie. You are gonna SHINE!!!!!!!!!
P.S. Dont forget to take your pillow to the hospital for the ride home to place over your tummy. It helps so much!

The moment I talk to her husband, I'll post, swear, cross my heart...  Leesa, can you feel the love here, baby? You might want to give your beloved my home number so he can call ME instead of waiting for me to call him... too funny.
