I am nine hours away from surgery and am filled with so much excitement. I am not nervous like I thought I would be. I should be in bed getting some sleep but I am wide awake. I have so much support pulling for me and that makes my heart sing. Tonight great friends came to visit and pray with us. Thanks Sharolyn and Joan for being such great friends. We cherish both of you so much. We both feel so at ease about surgery and you helped us so much!
Surgery is at 7:30 AM. I really have the better deal because I will be sleeping through the whole thing. Steve has the hard part and will be in the waiting room. I am so glad that his sister Brenda will be there to help him. Thanks for your prayers and well wishes. This is going to change my life and I am ready for that. I will post more after surgery so that everyone knows how I am doing. Thanks for reading this and for caring!
praying for you today, Michele and excited to see the transformation begin!

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your journey. I had a RNY only 2 weeks ago. Things are going well. I already dropped 30 lbs since I started the presurgical diet. Crazy huh? I know you are in great hands today! Best wishes...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steve, for your call letting me know Michele's surgery went so well - PTL!
ReplyDeleteWe're thankful, Michele, that this big step is behind you and we'll pray for rapid healing and steady weight loss.
Blessings,
