Fungal? ) Well I can be a Fun Gal dont think that was they had in . mind! Finish off with March, the month of Iron and Reclast infusions. And then there was the 30 pound weight drop and n ow I have had upper right surgery, last Thursday, and this one I am not Shaking off too good. Had to have hardware from my surgical repair of humerus removed, been b.s. 9 years and I it kind of turned against me, some speculation that could have caused the pneumonia, a pocket of something. While ortho in there he decided to fix up my rotator cuff instead of of bringing me back for another surgery in a couple months. Yeeouch, I know someone who's getting a 5 inch lump of coal in his stocking this year! Lest you doubt me, I can go to Coshocton county, one county to the East, they have veins of coal, still do some minor min ing there. Just think my body temporarily had enough no o

  18. Hope you And Felicia finally sign a truce, well since Korea is and was a "police action" there cannot be a permanent cease- fire. I am usually "pistol- whipped" by MS Precious Pouch sitting quietly to see of
  19. Most adolescents are not self- starters, they often need a little Jump Start to get in Gear.
  20. Ask him if his neck is feeling sore? If not, he and you both are going to come through this Okay. A normal reaction from a body still a little peeved at what you permitted to be done to it. It and you will both get better as time goes by!??
  21. Wishing you well, may all go smoothly.
  22. So familiar, I too had something similar in my WLS life, luckily my Last surgeon was the Best surgeon , the one for me . Sometimes you do have to go through vasting, tearing stitching out, before a beautiful final garment is achieved. May our poster find her perfect fit for a perfect surgery. I think that is what each of us desire!?
  23. A living hug for you today, maybe a little ahead of your surgery, but still sincere. Only YOU can do YOU, each of us reacts a point where you fear major surgery less than continuing as you are. My trigger may, and probably was, different than yours but no less valid. May you have a wonderful surgery, may it give you many more years with your boys, may you see them grow up, establish their own family units, and may you have the joy of grand and great-grand children. And most of all, may God Bless YOU!❤
  24. Found something in my inspirational. quotes- thought of it to honor you and all your Surgery Twins. AND THEN IT HAPPENS,,,, One day you wake up and you're in this place. You're in this place where everything feels right.Your heart is calm. Your soul is lit.Your thoughts are positive. Your vision is clear. You're at peace, at peace with where you have been, at peace with what you've been through and at peace with where you are headed. May your surgeons and you, yourself, be blessed on this Surgiversity, Your Wonder Wednesday. Mine came 7 months ago, also A Wonder Wednesday, may yours be smooth,may you wake up refreshed and go on to to a beautiful Healthy Future. Frustr8
