Kristie Keep up the good work. Donnahollotwomn@... wrote: Patty that is great 35 lbs. I know I have been able to eat everything so far too. This morning my family and I went to breakfast I got a kids meal at Chubby's. I got one egg, potatoes, and one slice of bacon, and one piece of toast. I almost ate all the egg and I ate the slice of bacon. I used the toast to move my eggs and did take one bite of it. I also ate a piece of potato. I had gotten the potatoes country style. I was stuffed. I used to go in and order the 2 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage, hashbrowns, and then I would get my toast as a abiscuit with gravy, and I would order a pancake. I would eat it all and drink about 2 glasses of soda. I felt so good eating and not filling sick afterwards. We all giggled because our breakfast tab used to be over $40 and

today it didnt even hit $30. Hubby and I then took our son to the skate park with the dog, and then I walked the dog home. I'm also getting ready to go on a bike ride with my husband to go rent movies for tonight. I asked h!im if he wanted to go to the highschool track and run, he looked at me like I was insane.

I will. I spoke to prior to reading your email

and she is doing a little better. They removed her iv

but because of the the self induced drip medication,

she got sick to her stomach and has not been able to

keep anything down (gelatin). So Dr. Baggs has

requested that the iv be placed back in. I am not

sure if she will go home today or not. If she does I

will post and let you all know. I think that with the

anestesia still in her system, that is not helping

either but boy she sure sounded back like ...even

managed to put her oldest daughter in check and that

made me feel good because I know I had my old

back. Thanks for listening and I will keep you

posted.

Pam will be in my prayers and thoughts, and each day it will get better. I did have pain, really bad gas, really bad muscle pains do to my Fybromialgia and just cried a few days. Even though I didn't have much time to think about my surgery since right after was my husbands surgery, then my mothers 2 weeks later. I realize now that was a blessing, I was to busy with their surgeries to feel the pain as bad as it was. I will pray that the pain passes fast, so can be happy to be on this journey. You take care.
