I recieved my band yesterday and even know I'm in pain I feel extactic. I have waited and researched so long that part of me thought it would never happen. I could see the door to my healthy future, with no more back pain, no more embrassment for my husband and son, no more being embrassed of myself. The problem was I could never get in. Now, I feel there is now a big neon sign above the door that say "OPEN." Last night was not easy but, I have faith that everyday will be better. The worst part is the gas so far. My husband has no problem belching 30 times an hour and the funny thing is I have never been so envious of his musical talent until today. I just keep thinking I want to do that and need to do it so bad that I just want to pinch him. Anyway I just wanted to check in with everyone and let you know I'm home.

Welcome to bandland! It really does get easier each day! A heating pad helps some with the gas pains, also walking worked better than anything else for me!

Way to go Drama Queen!!! Welcome to bandland. You are in for quite a journey, now. Glad you walked through that door with the Open sign on it. Take good care of yourself, do the hard work, and it will be worth it! Congratulations!!

Congratulations on getting your band! I'm glad that you're home safe and sound!
