Hi All,

My name is Toyia and I hope to have surgery in July. I am having some issues with my referral and the doctor's long wait list. I would love to have a mentor or buddy to help me through this emotional journey.

If anyone is interested please let me know. We can help support each other.

Thanks for reading,

I'm in Maryland too! Just outside of Baltimore. I am 8 months post-op but had my surgery in West Point, NY! I'm here if ya need to talk!

Hi,

Yea!!! I found some people in Maryland. I live in Baltimore County. I am having my surgery on Monday

@Earthchick97. I am having my surgery at Holy Cross Hospital. It's about 1 hour from my home. I wish I could have my surgery at a closer hospital. Since our surgery dates are so close, it would be nice to have you as a buddy. Are you on a liquid diet now? JH is a wonderful hospital. Best of luck to you.

@Dawn - are you still loving your sleeve? I am a little nervous. I would love to ask you some questions. Now that my surgery is right around the corner, I just wonder what's next. What should I expect. Any tips or advice that you could share would be wonderful. I could really use a mentor.

Have a wonderful day,

Toyia

Updates?

I've fought so hard with the military hospital system and now that I have my date, it's kind of hard to wrap my head around it. I'm really nervous!
