You are in good hand and believe in yourself that you are making the change for you and only YOU. We will pray for a speedy recovery and then you must remember 1 key point .... This is a tool that will take you so far they can fix you physically but not emotionally you will need to put yourself first for a long time and everyone else 2nd. That is the key to sucess. Most people place themselves 2nd and do for others rather than taking parts of there day to do what they need to do. When you think you are slipping go back to the basics and revealuate. It will work I promise!!!

We're with you, darlin!!!!! as everyone said, be sure to TAKE CARE of yourself - and as soon as the doc says you can get out of bed, DO IT, and walk as soon as they allow it.

not only does this truly help your recovery, i've always figured that, if i stayed in bed, it only gave THEM a better chance of finding me and doing stuff to me. silly, i know. but i always keep moving when i'm in the hospital - it makes me harder to catch!!!!

And it's a brand-new beginning for you - so my biggest piece of advice is to look FORWARD, not back - think about your new chance at a healthy life - and embrace it.
