Thanks everyone for all the B-day wishes. I need them right now. It maybe my birthday but I'm not to happy. I just talked to my PCP's office and my pap came back abnormal twice now. My Dr. gave me meds when I had the 2nd taken because he said something looked red...LOL I have no idea what this means. They found this out last week and I'm having to keep bugging them to get info. She told me to email the Dr and he'll call you. I wish she knew what all this waiting does to a person. I keep trying to get myself ready but right now its not doing any good something keeps coming up. I'm ready to be on the other side. I have been fat for 22 years today. I was born 22 years ago today as a 10lb baby. I'm ready to find my skinny and healthy girl inside of me. I still have 10 days to get everything done so maybe I can get a miracle on my b-day and this all come together.

I'm so glad you guys are here because putting this here is keeping me from crying right now. You guys are the best. I don't know what I would do without you.

XOXO

Thanks so much girl. I don't know what I would do without everyone here. You guys are the best. You and Bridget looked so good at the meeting. You both were smiling and happy. I can't wait until I'm there with you. Are you going to see Dale and Sandi in the hospital. I'm going to try to see Sandi both days so I know what to expect when I go in. Thanks again for all of your support with this.

Tonya,

Thanks for the compliment. (Karen aren't you proud of me?? I didn't roll my eyes at a compliment) Even though they are still hard to take.

Anyway as far as visiting, I am definitely going to visit.. I wouldn't miss it for the world.. It is a very good idea and I do encourage all pre-ops to visit new post ops in the hospital so you know what to expect. Most of the time they are smiling and happy so you will feel so much more at ease going into this.. good luck girl..

Tonya,

Don't worry too much. Keep calling the doctor and be persistant. I hope whatever it is will be cleared up and you will be running the halls with Sandi and I. You tell them there is no other choice. You already made a date with us girls and you are going to keep it.

Keep us posted girlfriend and let us know what we can do to help. Make this birthday special and remember you have us!

A stampede of horses could keep me away from Sandi at the hospital! There is no way would I stay away from you Tonya or Dale either. I know that Pam and Ang are up this week also, I am gonna try to make it to see them. Gonna go see Gerry "Bigbaldbuddy" tonight, after the early post op meeting... Im sure everything will go on as planned... you've had a lucky streak going on girlfriend, nothing is gonna stop you now...

I know I got to thinking about that. I have been very lucky. Its only take me 5 months to get here. I feel bad complaining when I know its taken Sandi a year to get here. Thanks again for all the support.
