Well,

It has been a while since I posted anything, I've mainly been reading. I have finished the 6 month process and my surgery is tomorrow, 01/21/08. I am very excited about it and at the same time its almost like being in the twilight zone (I can't believe its finally happening, it almost doesn't seem real). I've had alot of support along the way from family and friends which has made the whole process easier, and especially reading the posts on this site has been very helpful. Hopefully someone will tell me how to set up my ticker tape so that I can show my progress along the way. I'll post again sometime this week and let you know how things are going. Thank you to all the people who have willingly shared their experiences with everyone (good or bad). You don't know how much of an inspiration you are to each myself and others on this site.

Good luck jazzy! Can't wait to see updates. As for the ticker thing, click on mine to get there. Set up a new one, from there it is pretty self explanatory.

Good luck!!!!

Good luck to you!!

Hi Donna,

Good luck, it didn't hit me that it was real until I woke up after my surgery! Try the tutorial link below for your ticker and pm me if you get stuck!
