I am Christian ,raised vehemently evangelical, much more mellow Protestant now, that said when my middle son died unexpectedly at 31, my Jewish co-worker lit candles at temple, 3 people, one my Cousin had masses said in his memory, people in most of the mainline Protestant churches here prayers were said, I had a Muslim friend from Pakistan who said words were spoken in his honor at his Columbus mosque. And my 3 atheist and 1 agnostic acquaintances, why they shared their memories of my son. It did not matter to me in the long run what they believed or didn't believe, the important thing I was surrounded by a warm caccoon of love, at a time when I wasn't even sure I wanted to continue life without my baby . And I did survive, what ever type of belief or non-belief, love alone got me through.๐ฆ๐ธ๐ฆ

Ash Ash12 I also am walking the Second Hospital path. I am getting very close,to a surgery date assignment this time. Had an almost 1 hour conversation with Jessica my case manager/facilitator. I do know in all probability I will have Dr Bradley Needleman as my surgeon, but I did tell her if his partner Dr Sabrena Noria has a sooner open date she is equally acceptable. I must give them a 30 day unbroken 4 hour or longer compliance on my C-Pap machine so that might slow me down into July. I'll do it, I'll do anything to speed, to expedite the proceedings. I want to,leave you with a thought of value. What happened is the past & I can't change yesterday. I accept I am perfectly okay the way I am; this is acceptable and I have the power to change my tomorrows. Have a day full of sunshineโ

I have a family member who suffers from seizures, when she is in control you would think things are perfect within and for,herm Does this negate the fact, she does have this neurological blip? My point: just because it isn't apparent doesn't mean,it isn't there. I am happy you pass for being perfect,to thses other people but you and your doctor may know your true state of health, you and Doctor make the final decision both your viewing public. -
What do you think will be hardest for you?
Frustr8 replied to Love2Travel816's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Chewing, you try chomping. and chomping the same bite repeatedly with dentures. Plus my throat etc tend to be dry so I also need extra moisture to swallow. Not as important maybe until I get back to sifts and solids.๐ฒ -

My. current pictures, well remember our geography books, on the page that says " the pride of Russia is their strong women" there is my twin standing next to a large tractor, smiling. The only way you can distinguish between the two in size is the tractor doesn't have a headscarf on! My dream is to be standing next to a shovel or pitchfork, something not so wide across! And I WILL DO IT!๐

Sharp pain on left side

Well if you were a sleeve as many are these days.,when they remove your stomach remnant the surgeon pulls it right to left across your abdomen. Many have bumped and irritated some nerves going across. ๐๐๐โค -
