Happy Bandiversary to Me!!!

Everyone join me in singing - remember the Happy Anniversary song on the Flintstones? Barney is playing the piano and singing. He sings it over and over and over again, until Fred starts rolling him and the piano out of the room!

“Happy Bandiversary Happy Bandiversay Happy Bandiversary Ha-ppy Ban-di-ver-sary! Happy Happy Happy Happy Ban-di-ver-sary Happy Happy Happy Happy Ban-di-ver-sary.”

This is truly a red letter day! One year! I’m emotional! I thrilled! AND I am in a celebrating kind of mood! “Celebrate Good Times, Come On!”

(my daughter used to say “Salivate” Good Times - she was only 5 years old - if you’re PB’g, I guess that would be true!)

I can’t believe it’s been a year! I can still remember how excited I was the morning of my surgery. I wasn’t scared anymore - just excited, anxious and thrilled it was finally happening!

I have so much to be thanful for! I am thankful for Dr. K. He saved my life! He took a chance on a Super Morbidly Obese woman in her mid-40’s, who sat in his office scared to death he’d say,”no” - He worked hard to make my surgery happen and for that I will be forever grateful. He will always be my hero!

I’m thankful for my bestfriend, “M” who turned me on to Dr. K, I’m thankful for the divorce settlement that helped me pay for my surgery, I’m thankful for Parker Adventist Hospital and the Medical Director there who worked with Dr. K and his surgical staff to help make my surgery possible in the main OR, I’m thankful for all my co-workers who adjusted their schedules not only once but twice to give me the recovery time off, I’m thankful for all of you here - each of you who comes here to post support and encouragement.

This has been a wonderful year! Today is truly the first day of the rest of my life!
