PuraVida37 715 Posted September 4, 2013 How are we doing folks? Any concerns/doubts/victories to share? You think for a group in the verge of banding we would be more talkative! Are any of you going to write letters to children or to yourself before surgery? I am thinking of writing one to my little girl, a just in case one telling her how much i love her and why I am pursuing this. And maybe one to myself to read when things get hard. 2 Daliaha and cingee72 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am thinking of writing one to my little girl, a just in case one telling her how much i love her and why I am pursuing this. And maybe one to myself to read when things get hard. I have been thinking of the what ifs.. and I know its just my anxiety but I feel I wanna write something, Maybe just stick it in my mail box.. just in case... and I like the idea of one, when it gets hard. -Debbi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So hungry - I will do better tomorrow because I want a good outcome! I know I can do it ! 1 kphoping reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PuraVida37 715 Posted September 5, 2013 Dmh102, what is the hold up on getting you a date? Fee139, good luck and please check in as soon as you can so we know you made it through safely. I'm sure you'll be up and around in no time! My friend is a coach and she said that one of her girls had laproscopic surgery and was playing again in 2 weeks. I hope I am able to recover quickly too. (But I know to take it slow!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
