Thoughts on the night before Thanksgiving

Nov 25, 2009

This is the first time in years that I am neither traveling for nor hosting a Thanksgiving, and so it seems a little strange to have nothing to do this evening before! I find myself thinking, as I think about tomorrow, that in all likelihood, this is my last fat holiday season.  (Gosh, I hope I did not just jinx myself!)  I am so thankful this evening for the guidance that brought me to my decision to seek WLS, and even more so, I am thankful for that little voice in my head that screamed at me to do more research and find the RIGHT WLS for me. I am thankful for the Internet and the ability to use it, and the availability of information on websites like DSFacts.com.  I am thankful for all the people who so freely give of their time and knowledge on the OH boards and who guided me to the DS decision.  I am thankful for Adirondack Medical Center and the great people there who are helping me through this process. I am thankful for Murphy, my PCP extraordinaire who supports my WLS and DS decision with great enthusiasm and excitement.  And I am thankful for the unconditional love and support of my beloved family and closest friends who not only embraced my decision with tears of joy and words and actions of unconditional love and support,  but who have committed to helping me in each and every part of this endeavor.  I am truly blessed and eternally grateful, and more than a little excited to see what next Thanksgiving brings!
