AngeeBaby hi glad to hear you have your date, within 3 months of surgery you'll see a major difference in your energy level in your appearance and you'll be so glad you did this for yourself and your kids too. I think I read once where you wish your kids were little again? I too sometimes wish that, but my twins are 19 and my oldest will be 31 this summer, time has flown by. Now that I feel as I've been given a new lease on life I am glad my kids are grown. I miss the "baby day's" they went by so quickly. are yours grown? Writing down your feelings whether on paper or just on here, I believe it truly helps, I've found a lot of comfort with others on here for they've listening to my woe's my happy moments and my endless questions. ask as many ? as you can think of I think that' s the only way to truly find out what is ahead of you. I will do my best to answer any concerns you have about your upcoming surgery. Donna
