Hi,

Wish we lived closer. We have a few things in common: VSG, animals and travel! I'm outside of Memphis, but travel through Atlanta all the time...Guess if you wanted to walk the Delta airport concourse with me..Second thought, Im usually running those, LOL!

My surgery is june 15th in Cancun. My family is going with me, and will be a mini vacation for them. Not so much for me, but happy that they are coming.

Hi thanks for the response. I will be praying for you. I love your great sense of humor! If you ever get stuck in Atl please let me know. Please keep in touch and congrats on taking the first step!

I would love to know about the single spider thingy. Is it suppose to be easier than the regular Vsg?

Oh, and you should know I do get stuck a couple of times of year in Atlanta. I've found a cheap place about ten minutes from the airport. It's next to a waffle house. Don't think it's in a safe area, but I just stick a chair under the door knob. Hehehe!

My husband and I also sponser a child from the Palmer Children's Home in Hernando, Mississippi. It's a great organization, and we're proud to be a part of it!
