Doing well. Just tired easily...I've been getting in 1 protein shake per day although I'm still on all clear liquids. It takes an entire day to get a full shake in. I still have trouble sleeping at night and I'm trying the couch tonight. I don't have any pain and can't wait to be back to feeling normal again. How about yourself??

I am ok, still counting down.. 93 days (or 3 full months) to go. :(

I was approved for a loan yesterday but after seeing that I will be paying so much in interest, I will just hold off and pay for it when I have the cash.

I am glad things are going so well! I only have a full week off then going back to work for 1/2 days for another week.

All will be well. God bless all.

Hey folks. Kinda off topic but I'm working to schedule my surgery with Dr.Garcia in February. I have found out all I needed to make my decision. But I have one more question. Do I need a passport book or just a passport card? My coordinator mentioned something about just having my ID and birth certificate. How did you all get there? Because I have to pay for both me and my mom and that would end up being expensive.

Hi, I used my passport book , didn't bother paying more money for something the book does. Also there were 2 people with us on the way back that used their birth certificates and drivers license since they did not have a passport and there were no problems with that either.

Hey girls I'm doing well yesterday afternoon was my surgery dr. Garcia had others patients before me... Right now I have to walk and walk so I can't get rid of the pain in my stomach :) the nurses here are so good they are been helping me a lot :) I'm just waiting to eat or drink something :) I'm not been allowed to drink anything..., thank you for your prayers
