Thank you for the words of support...they mean a lot to me.
I'm only on day 2 of this process and it's hard. I didn't sleep well at all last night...and I have no appetite. I choaked down an Ensure shake that someone recommended in the chat room, and bought some multi-vitamins to supplement what I'm missing.
It's just a very baf feeling right now. I'm glad that I took the step I did yesterday but, at the same time, I'm scared.
