Got a date for surgery

Well I was given my surgery date and it is - drum roll please - April 26th. I have had a difficult month with a tragic death in my family and today my first easter without my mom who passed the end of September. I am trying to take each day as it comes. So many things in my life are so good, yet its hard to overlook the really crappy things, and I mean really crappy things that happened in the last year. I makes me wonder whats next.

I am, on the other hand, positive with my outlook on my upcoming surgery. My husband is less than thrilled, he's just worried about me making it through surgery because the woman he was with before me died on the operating table.

I am waiting to have the thought that I don't need the surgery and can do it on my own, but that hasn't hit me yet. Perhaps I have actually accepted the fact that I could use the help of the band.

Please cross your fingers for me.

Thanks.

Hi there luckyinlove :-)

Congratulations on the surgery date! I am being banded June 21st 2010. Just writing to say sorry to hear about your Mum, and the other loss in your family. I know a little about how you feel, losing my sister and my Mum in pretty quick succession a while back. Guess just hope you hang in there and know that they would want you healthy and happy. Also, if you ever need a chat anytime... I'm Australian, so the times are messed up... but send me a note and we can maybe get together. Crossing my fingers from all this far away for you too! Take good care... dee x
