I'll be gone for a few days and will be praying for you all. Those of you going into surgery, keep up your faith because even though it is a rough road, it is so worth it. I'll try to let you all know how THIS aspect of our female lives turns out after I get back. Everything is coming out, tied down and otherwise! So, see all of you, my dear friends, when I get home from the hospital.

Lisa,
I know you are already in the hospital, so you won't see this in the near future. But you will be in my thoughts and prayers as well.
You're a strong woman, and you will get through this next obstacle, I hope it's a speedy recovery!!!
Take care,
Shari
