Hello All!

I'm set for Friday, July 29th with Dr. Kelly in TJ. My husband will be coming with me, but I wanted to know if I would have any fellow sleevers there also?

I am planning on July 28th. I'm trying to get my flight handled and then I am calling to schedule surgery. However I have talked to Trish and she said the 28th is fine. Hopefully I will still be there to meet all of you! I would really like that! Best of luck on your surgery... See you next month!

See you soon!

Anyone else extremely nervous besides me?

I'm not nervous yet. We are going to the beach 2 weeks before our trip to Mexico, so I think my mind is just occupied with something else. Once we get back from vacation I think I'll probably start to freak out a bit. I try not to think about the surgery, just the end result. To me the surgery is a negative, but the end is a positive. Positive thinking is always better than negative. I'll deal with the negative when I HAVE to. Maybe I'll get lucky and I wont have to until I'm at the hospital

I just wanted to ask....Are any of you changing your mind about surgery since we got the disturbing news about Gibgirly? Just wondering...

No, not changing my mind. Just a bit more worried & nervous. I feel badly for her family, but at the same time I have to think of the situation as a statistic, not a personal loss. We all know the risks going into this and we just have to have faith that what we're doing is right. It did make my husband want to speak with Dr. Kelly before we go, though.

WOW lots of 28/29 July folks! I am July 18th so If you know anyone who is going to Dr. Kelly on that date let me know!
