I am so very depressed about my surgery being postponed due to my dr. becoming ill. I hope getting my new date, hopfully tomorrow, will make me feel better. I have been crying all afternoon on and off. I think it really took a mental toll on me.:cry

I could see that. Just remember that things like this might be for the better. Keep your chin up. (I'm sure I would take it hard too)

Wish I could help you. I would talk you into taking a short slow walk with me. I would take you to the local library and we could look at magazines together.

Sometimes our life tests us.

I postponed my surgery so I could go on vacation. I didn't want to be banded on vacation. I wish now I would have gone ahead with it.

I didn't know any better.

Best wishes for a quick date,

edie

I am so sorry to hear about your surgery being rescheduled. I know how you feel. You have prepared yourself in so many ways. I know this must be devistating for you, I almost had to reschedule mine, down to the Tuesday before my Friday surgery. I cried and cried. Let it out. Just know that this is not the end, you can and will be able to go through with it. Time is your enemy now, but it won't be for long. God bless and hang in there! I will be thinking about you! let us know how you are doing!

Hi Deb,

I'm very sorry that this has happened, but at least your Dr. didn't try to preform surgery on you while being sick and let you know this ahead of time. Sometimes God has his way of helping us out of troubled situations at the time but we don't realize it until later.

If your Dr. had tried to do the surgery and did something wrong, it could of been devestating for you. So think of it in this way, and I don't want it to sound badly, but at least if if you are a bit down now, at least you're here, alive and well, and just waiting on another "birthday". At least you won't have to wait a whole year like the other one!!!

I too had my surgery postponed. I was scheduled for 6/27/07, but my Dr. is going to be out of town, so now I have to wait 5 more days.

I know when 6/27 comes and goes I will be feeling down also, but I try to look at it this way. I now have 5 more days to educate myself on the band, and 5 more days to eat whatever I want, and 5 more days to appreciate the opportunity to have this surgey in the first place.

This is what will make those 5 days fly by so fast that the surgery will be there before I know it.

Keep your head up, and take a deep breath. You know all good things are worth the wait!!!!!!!
