Perfect!!!

Today I went for my pre-operation consultations with the Psychiatrist, Internist, and Surgeon and all I kept hearing is "Perfect"

I have never thought of myself as "Perfect" but since I serve a perfect God and he is opening the doors for this journey,provided me with wonderful friends who fervently prayed for me today, how could my day not be "Perfect"

First of all, I got to spend the day with one of my favorite people in the entire world, my cousin Sydney...We can laugh and joke in the worst of times, and together we breezed through all of my appointments and were done before my last scheduled appointment was even to have taken place... Score!!!

Come to find out, I am just about the perfect candidate for this surgery. Great mental state (really that's what the Dr.said) Stable life, and willing to change.

Perfect age (old enough to know better?)

And no major health issues (except for one that is the subject of all this anyways)

I was uplifted and encouraged by everyone I met... It was a blessed day...

Now the burning question... NO I DO NOT KNOW MY SURGERY DATE YET.

But I will definitely keep you posted.

Traffic was fairly light so again thanks to my prayer warriors for my travelling mercies and on my way home I was listening to the local radio station who was playing the best of the 80's & 90's... Which is right up my alley...

UNTIL... They started playing that "Butterfly Kisses" song. That song gets me EVERY TIME Wahhhhhh!!!!

But it was a good cry... Perfect end to a Perfect Day.

God is good

It Is Really Happening

Tomorrow is what I am calling my first

"Pray for me" day.

I will be spending the entire day down in San Diego with my cousin Sydney meeting with doctors in preparation for my surgery.

According to the timeline given, I should be having my surgery in less than a month.

One of my favorite words from the Bible comes to mind when I think about this day...

Selah(so what do you think about that?)It is a word of praise with a matter-of-fact quality to it.

I think of this upcoming adventure with such excitement and anticipation all I can do is praise...

SELAH!!!!

I Can Only Imagine

Every once in awhile as a school district employee I am given a tee shirt for one reason or another. Most of the time they are not my size and I give them away to a co-worker.

Today I was given a tee shirt and I saved it.

It is a size L.

I can't even imagine what it would be like to be a size XL let alone a L.

That tee shirt is a sign of encouragement to me, that this surgery will open doors creating opportunities that right now I can only imagine...

I know the day I put that shirt on and wear it to work...

I will cry.
