That's a really good hint. Cater and be the one who does everything else while others are eating I do this anyway, but then after the party I have a huge plate. I guess that won't happen anymore. Thanks

YOU....CAN.....DO.....THIS!!!!! Don't give up. You did the surgery now make it worth the risk! Get some couseling.

Thats great! I hope its nothing but goos for you from this point on :-) I'm going to request you so we can keep in touch. I go in the 25th! How is your support system? I'm soo scared to tell them. I've kept the secret for 8 months besides my sis, mom, and husband.

I think I will write the letters just in case. But I know that God won;t let me die. Not because of this and not now.

Please tell me how it goes! I am going in april 25th! I'm so scared!

I just got approved and I am soooo scared. Before the approval there was nothing but excitement from my first appointment 9/30/11. I think that I honestly thought I wouldn't get approved because I'm 26 and 248. However, they approved me very qucikly and my surgery is the 25th. All I keep thinking about is.... what if something happens to me? I am too young to die. I have a 1 year old son.... what if something goes wrong???? Maybe I am just having thoughts like this because I buried my grandmother yesterday and my boss died last week, but what are the statistics? What are my chances? Am I willing to die for this? Am I crazy because I am going through trauma in my life?

WHat was the reason they denied you? I am trying to gauge whether or not I am going to run into problems.
