Subject: Surgery Great Success Praise God!!

> Hi, Ilena, Congratulations on your success recently and thank you for

being

> so involved in standing up for all of us, standing up for what is right,

> for willing to put yourself out there on the line. You are deeply

> respected, appreciated and loved by thousands of women all over this

> country and abroad, I'm sure., and I am one of them, you can believe

that.

> Please pass this along to the group: My surgery with Dr. Kolb in Atlanta

> on July 31st went fantastic. It took about 5 1/2 hours I think my son

> said. Most of the silicone was contained in the breast area. I am very

> happy with the Mastopexy. They are mine and I am so grateful to the Lord

> for he has indeed moved heaven and earth as far as I'm concerned for all

> this to come about. I have had to trust in Him every minute for what I

> consider little miracles, well actualy big miracles to me. I love Dr.

> Kolb and would recommend her to anyone. She is great, kind, and

> loving. The people I sold carpet for in Atlanta ten years ago and had not

> spoken with them since then paid for me to stay at Homestead Village-a

> nice little studio apartment for $50.00 per night. I was there for a

> week. Then my son, Paris came up and we moved to the Masters Economy

> Motel. We stayed there one night, then the next day was surgery and

Paris

> stayed with me overnight in the hospital. With Medicare you have to have

> it done at the hospital. Then Paris paid for another week for me at this

> motel. It was nice and very reasonable-$37.95 per night and for $2.00

> more you can have a refrigerator/microwave. Paris had to leave the day I

> came from the hospital. August 3rd was my birthday-56 years young(hate

> the word old). He called me to wish me Happy Birthday and I was quite

> spacey on the Demerol and didn't even realize it was my birthday. I went

> back to the doctor 6 days later and had the tubes removed. I only took

> pain meds for three days after surgery then switched to Tylenol. The

pain

> has not been bad at all. After I had the drainage tubes removed on Monday

> I went out to the office of the generous people I use to work for, Randy

> and Genie, and spent some time with them, even helped Genie do paperwork

> for two hours. Got to see the two brothers who were the big wheels

behind

> the business with the carpet and they are all now in the burglar alarm

> system business. I hugged all their necks and they just treated me extra

> special. Randy, Genie, Don and I went to eat. Then I went with Randy

and

> Genie out to thier beautiful house. Then Genie took me out to the

Hampton

> Inn -$90 per night and put me up there Monday night because Randy wanted

> me to attend a sales meeting on Tuesday.Monday morning Genie called me in

> the room while I was laying there resting all dressed up and ready for

the

> meeting and said that Bob, one of the brothers had died in his sleep the

> night before. I just couldn't believe it. I was so glad I had gotten to

> see him and to hug his neck. The strange thing is that his first wife

> died in her sleep 8 years ago too. Bob had remarried and there are two

> teenagers involved. My heart goes out to those children. I pray they can

> grieve properly and not get stuck in the anger or depression stage of the

> grieving process for their own sakes. I undressed and got into my car and

> just came on home with tears rolling down almost all the way home. They

> are all such good, wonderful and generous and loving people. Drove 200

> miles Tuesday to get back home and it never really bothered me. Now the

> drive up there sent me into a flare, which I had to cope with until it

> finally let up the day before I went for surgery. So my trip has been a

> mighty interesting one and I am so thankful it is all over. I can

> certainly tell a big difference in the way I feel already, although I

know

> that it will take some time to totally DETOX my body. Went to my

> chirpractor yesterday and she and her pastor's wife who is her

> receptionist were sitting there and said " Welcome to The Little

> Bitty Titty Committee " . What a hoot. LOL> I spent the last day and a

> half reading all the e-mails from all of you. Been missing you all. It

> is so good to be HOME>

> Please pass this along, Ilena. I forgot this part. The right implant was

> ruptured really bad and the left one according to Dr. Kolb may as well

> have been ruptured because it was leaking all over the place. A

Mamogram,

> An Ultrasound, and an MRI and A silicone Antiboides test were all

> negative. HOW INTERESTING!!!!!!!! Glenda THE LORD IS OUR SHEPHERD AND WE

> SHALL NOT WANT. God Bless, Glenda ggziglar@...
