lachellove 486 Posted August 18, 2015 I wonder if we could ask Alex to had a Christian WLS Support Group (for any kind of wls) under general surgeries, special interest. . Sounds like a good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swimbikerun 1,046 Posted August 18, 2015 I think the question is what type of spiritual support are you looking for? Another question: are you going to keep it positive only? The reason why I ask, some people say, since I've had issues, if I say here is what happened to me or try and ask people to do their "surgeon" or "office" research, that's negative.

And to help eachother over come. Negative in everyone's eyes and case is different. We are here for support, prayer, conversation, venting whatever is needed at the time.

sleevedbygrace 23 Posted August 20, 2015 Hi all, My sleeve surgery is this Saturday morning. Check in time is 9:30 am. Would you keep me, my surgeon and the medical staff in your prayers that morning? And we'll all do the same as your date comes up. God Bless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never heard that I actually spoke to my pastor not once did he mention that .. People judge what they don't understand we are taking care of bodies.. And it's our choice and we are getting our lives back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it's our choice and we are getting our lives back. I am surprised to hear this. It never crossed my mind that someone would think that A medically necessary procedure would be questioned by another Christian. Glad your here. Welcome to the sleeved side!
