big red 0 Posted May 6, 2006 My lapband surgery date is set for May 24 :clap2: !! Dr. Spivak is performing my operation in Houston. Please keep me in your prayers that day. I live north of Houston in The Woodlands and met with a support group last Thursday. It was a small group but sooooo informative. They will meet again Thursday, May 18, @ 6:30 pm at Cafe Express on Market Street right off of Six Pines in The Woodlands. I have to say I was nervous :nervous but after meeting fellow lapbanders:girl_hug:, I'm feeling less nervous and even anxious to get the surgery. As they talked about their surgeries and post surgeries I felt more and more comfortable. Eighteen more days and counting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
