I'll second that!

I couldn't help myself! Roflmao:D Let me tell you, you will feel that way long before you hit 92! The older I get the more pains I discover I have. You probably have a bug or something, the flu is starting up around here.

Blossom, my heart goes out to you. Animals are like children, and we love them so much. You will be able to handle anything, I am sure everything will work out for you. Just enjoy while you can.

My doctor told me that is old age creeping in:D Didn't you just have a birthday? :eek: Just couldn't help myself, but that really is what the doc told me.

I thought the same thing, Penni you certainly don't look like you weight that much. Maybe your scale is wrong.

I had good news today that I don't have to do a clear liquid diet! Low fat all week, then Sunday a liquid diet. I can eat cream Soups as long as there are no chunks! Ah, did I luck out! Thanks for all the kind words! Y'all are great!

Good Luck! Hoping to see your pictures.

Lisa G. I am glad to hear things are going better for you. Maybe you both needed a little distance from each other to just think a little and when he comes home he will be a different man:D

What date are you planning this for? :D

Such loving stories. We had a black lab we absolutely loved. When we moved he was 19 years old. He had arthritis really bad, but still moved on his own, but we had to give him asprins every day in a hot dog. We tried every thing we could to get him in the truck to bring with us. We even used a ramp for him to walk up, but we couldn't get him to get in the truck. When my hubby tried to lift him in, he was hurting so bad, and knew we would have to put him through that every time he had to be put out to go potty, so we had no choice but to leave him behind. A nephew said he would take him if we would provide the dog house and pay for his food. We agreed happily. We left money, and sent more when we got down here. Well, two weeks later the nephew decided he didn't want to bother anymore, so he had him put to sleep. We were so heartbroken. If I had only knew he would do that, I would have taken the chance that we could have gotten him here. He was a really special dog, and will be remembered for a lifetime.

Becky - You are probably right, but just in case I want something. Lisa - I have my slip on slippers, mine are blue. I'll probably get the pink gown now! Another thing they told me to get is Listerine mint strips, to help keep my mouth from feeling so dry.

Lisa - Hopefully they can finally find out what the problem is. It would be great if it could be healed up and you could get a new port. If that tubing is sticking out, maybe it is keeping it from healing too. Keep on top of it lady, let's get you healed up!

Thanks everyone! Y'all are sweethearts! It's gonna take me alot longer than that Marie to get to goal:D Leatha - I got your numbers, thanks so much. I thought I would never get out of the hospital today, but they told me everything I would go through from the time I got there till I was home. I am all stocked up on Jello, Soup, popcicles, and carnation instant Breakfast. They recommend the carnation, which was a surprise to me. I have my chewable Vitamins, my chewable Calcium, my gas meds, and a pillow to take with me. I have my heating pad ready for when I get home. I have a book to take with me, a housecoat, and necessities. I even have a chapstick. Now, if I just don't catch a cold or something. I had a flu shot a couple weeks ago, so I am set there. By the way, I learned all this from LBT and you great gals/guys. I can't thank y'all enough for all the encouragement and knowledge y'all have given to me. Now, if I can keep my nerves in check I will be fine. They ask me today if I was nervous and I said yes. They said I wouldn't be normal if I wasn't, and it would worry them! Thanks again!

Welcome! Lots of information and great support here from everyone! If you can't find it here, you won't find it anywhere! lol

I'm a Texas baby, count me in!

Wow, what beautiful flowers! I love flowers, I have a yard full, and I have so many plants around my pool that the first thing people say is "I have never seen so many different plants in one place." Great picture, thanks for sharing with us.

Kelly I know exactly how you feel, I am going the 18th, so we will be one day apart. I will post when I get home, and hope you will do the same. Good luck with your surgery!

Becky - you have too many cute pictures:D I just got use to the other new one:D

Yeah, I am really excited. It seems like I have waited forever. Tomorrow is my last pre-op visit. I am ready!

I might join ya later on this, but my surgery is next Monday, and I don't think I will be riding the Harley for a while after that:D I will be doing some walking though. We'll see! Thanks for thinking abut me:D

Glad to hear you are doing good. Keep us posted.
