I Am Thankful!

Beautiful flowers from friends!
I'm thankful to walk. It feels great!
More flower's. I'm thankful for friends!
Taking a walk with my MOM!
My old hardware is finally out, after 18
years! Hooray!

I was tempted to show off my 9-10 inch scare...... It's gross, but interesting at the same time. I've never seen such a long incision on a back, including mine. So, my bikini is out for all the summers to come, and I need a very high back on my swim suit. 
As far as weight loss, ah, I am the perfect puffer fish. So my water weight better start coming off( or out) or I just might have to hurt someone. Golly, I eat less than 400 cal. a day because my appetite is shot. Soooooo fat  and water that keeps hangin' on. GET OFF! NOW!
Many thanks again for the overwhelming response of love and support from family and friends! It really has taken me aback. I am so grateful for our friendships we have made everywhere we've lived. Friends that we've not heard of for years, somehow new travels fast. It has been a special experience  to be thought of from those we thought had forgotten about us. Thank You!
HAPPY GOBBLE GOBBLE TO YOU ALL! 
Please use your fingers and comment, so we know how your doing, yes, you in the North East!!!!!
Love To All!

I'm so happy that you are doing well! My mom says you have to lie down all day though, when you aren't walking. I think I might go crazy!
Your water weight will go away... no worries! After I had Owen, the pumped me full of 7 litres of fluid, so they could give me blood. Just imagine how puffy I was. It went away!
Keep us posted on your progress!!
Love you Auntie T!!!

The news that has reached Connecticut sounds pretty good. I hope that it is accurate and that the you came through the surgery even better than you expected.
I saw Donna Safer today. She wanted me to tell you that she says-"Hi".
We continue to keep your family in our prayers and hope that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving together. Miss you all and look forward to celebrating your success when you return.
PS- give Katie a gentle hug for me!
