OwlMom 3 Posted September 24, 2012 Jazzeeja, I will be praying for you as well. The support of others through prayer and meals for my family has been such a blessing. Don't turn down offers for help. It makes people feel good to help out. God's peace! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TinaD 18 Posted September 24, 2012 Thank you owlmom for your prayers and thoughtfullness. I will be carrying them in with me to surgery. I'm excited and a little apprehensive. I do have a wonderful surgeon and staff, and the hospital is new and high tech. So that should be comfortable, I've done everything for the past two weeks that was required, last two days of Clear Liquids was tough. Now I'm fasting til surgery with just a sip of Water to take meds in the morning. Lost 13 pounds. So hopefully all will go well. I will post as soon as I'm coherent tomorrow. Thank you again.

I work M-F 7-4 and my kids extra curricular lives make me as a single mom a human taxi. I'm trying to figure it all out. This is my first week back at work and I haven't walked since Sunday. I'm tremendously disappointed in myself but I just have such low energy. Staying awake at my desk is a small miracle. I had my surgery on the tenth so I'm praying it will get better when I can manage to meet my Protein and Water goals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
