We live in Nampa...about 15 minutes from Boise! My surgeon is in Boise and I'll be having surgery at St. Alphonsus Hospital. So not really traveling unless you call 15-20 min travel...lol! I have a great support system...all my family and friends have been behind me 100%! My mom and dad are thrilled and think it will be great for me! I have a 9 year old daughter...she's a little aprehensive about the surgery but I know she sees why I'm doing this and when I get smaller it will be great to be able to do so much more with her! My fiance was a little apprehensive at first but not he's totally supportive. He will be taking me to the hospital and staying w/ me so that will be good. It does help to have people who are supportive. I've told pretty much anyone who ask...I figure I have nothing to be ashamed of and I'm not going to hide! Everyone at my work has been pretty supportive and my boss is wonderful! Only one full day left!
