So today, I told the hardest group of people about my surgery...my church family. We had a lady in our church that almost died a few years ago from bypass surgery. She has not taken care of herself and stays sick and has gained almost all of her weight back. I knew they would be supportive but then there's this horrible story in our background. Everyone was so supportive, even my friend that almost died. I feel so relieved to have that off my shoulders. Also, the passports came today so I can get an exact date asap!
