hopingtolose2013 81 Posted July 7, 2013 July 8th!! I can't believe it is here. We are cleaning and cleaning and cleaning the house for a sterile arrival back home! Trying to forget that ill be sleeved by now tomorrow! If I think abiut it too long I might cry. Scared and excited! I worry abiut my girls so much. I know the chances of me dying are slim but they are there. I know my chances of dying witjout the surgery are absolute. I almost died after having my eight year old. I developed congestive heart failure. The thought of her without a mommy was traumatic. My second daughter is adopted from China. I just love them so much and hate to put my life at risk. But in this case it is necessary. Much prayers for all going under tomorrow! 3 lorrieann1, Vixynne and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lorrieann1 49 Posted July 7, 2013 Just think, what a wonderful gift you are giving them both in a new, healthier mommy! I am so excited that I'm sitting here in awe looking at my suitcase after I started this process a long 8 months ago. It's finally here! Wow.... 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted July 7, 2013 cleaning the house for a sterile arrival back home hopingtolose2013 sterile arrival.???.........are you bringing a baby home??? kindof i guess........... a new little baby tummy as far as you having feelings/fear of death??? you would have to stay inside 24/7 to make sure nothing happened to you "out there" all surgeries have complications things should/hopefully go without a hitch during and after WLS "from my lips to Gods ears!!!" you'll be holding and loving those girls very soon as OP said - the kids and you will be so much happier, that you have regained your health, and are able to be with them in better health good luck to you tomorrow don't be too nervous during surgery suggestion: how about closing your pretty eyes and taking a nap while the docs do their thing!! speedy recovery you are on your way to a healthier, happier, longer life with the sleeve!!!! kathy 1 lorrieann1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
