    So excited for you. Seems like you have had a tough year and now you will be doing something to ensure a better future for yourself. I was impressed with how you pulled yourself together after your diabetes diagnosis. You got your numbers down, got a new appointment, and I will hope and pray for a happy, pain-free future for you!!

    All the best to you,
    amy
    Thanks so much for your kind words

      Good news. Pretty soon this will be all over, your date is soon.

      I guess on the stool softeners and laxitives, it would be a good idea to have an arsenal of choices available, just in case.

      You know its people that are in major pain before surgeries that really benefit....
      The first time I was completely pain free was about 3.5 months post. It had been decades... and I forgot was being completely pain free was like. Think of this as a goal, you will be there soon.

        Hi Melissa,
        We are looking at New Bern. My husband has a sail boat and needs to be near the coast. I will have frizzy hair, but my skin should be happy.
