Hello everyone,

My husband, Lewis, is scheduled for his surgery on Monday, January 12, 2015 at 10:15 am. He is a very high risk patient and the surgery will not be laproscopic. The surgeon has to go in via an incision due to other health issues.

Those who are so inclined--PLEASE say a prayer for him to be able to undergo the vertical sleeve gastrectomy AND recover well from it. Those are the remaining hurdles for him. As I've said before, I would very much like to be a couple who can dance again, travel again and enjoy things we used to enjoy.

Keep warm everyone in the states, I know it's colder than a well digger's a$$ in Alaska as my father used to say.

wonderful way to start the new year

surgery on my b'day is a good sign too

turn about is fair play

he helped you the past year with his support

now you can help him - then both work and support each other!!

how great is that!!!

i can only imagine with his past issues, you are both nervous/anxious/excited etc

please report back how things are going on monday

we all get involved/feel for our fellow sleevers or any other WLS people

after his re-cuperation hope to see you two dancing into the sunset on your cruise to hawaii or "alaska"

baby it is cold outside!!! Syracuse, NY

i've always heard the expression "its colder than a witches titttttt"

may this new year bring you both all the health and happiness you deserve

good luck

kathy

Kathy,

Thank you. I'm so grateful for this site. Thank you Alex Brecher.

Coming here and posting and getting feedback from people who have been there, done that and bought the T-shirt ---is PRICELESS.

I'll keep y'all updated on Lewis's status after his surgery Monday.

Imagine someone singing this sweetly, (admittedly, that would be someone other than myself) :

"Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Kathy, happy birthday to you!"

I wish you a very happy, wonderful birthday.

Kathleen
