I know exactly how you feel. The exact same thing happened to me. It's a real blessing. Think about all of the worrying you won't have time for.

YES!!!

Sooner is great based on how you have been feeling. Just make sure that they establish a long-term care program for you when that surgeon leaves.

Get ready!!! Good things are coming!!!

Sorry Keith - but congrats to you! You seem to have taken a seat in the front of the emotional rollercoaster of WLS this month.
