I know how she must exactly feel at this moment.. which will be crummy.. and it sucks when they make you walk for the first time on the very day your post op we will see what she says :p

I spoke with Suigeniris and she spoke with Jessica on the phone- she is out of surgery and everything went well- she is resting but otherwise happy and complete! Woohoo!!

Thats great, I hope we here from her within the week.

  xoxoxoxxox my sister friend 

Congratulations to Jessica. These stories are so inspirational as it reminds me what I am working for. That it is something real that I can have and that you brave souls that have come before have already done.

Sometimes it hurts to think how long it might be until the time comes when I'll feel complete. With every single thread posted like this, it is like a bittersweet beacon of hope shining through that thick darkness that has almost fully enveloped me at times. Hope is a very dangerous thing to lose. Whether you know or not, you give others like me much hope. Congratulations Jessica!

->-bleeped-<-y connection here at hospital. This is Jimmy, Jessica's brother. She is doing ok but in alot of pain and will post hopefully a couple days. She says thanx for the support. Doctor said all is well.

Thank you for the update, Jimmy. Please send her our regards!

Take care Jessica, the pain sucks, but it gets better over time as you heal and the best bit is you are now a complete woman, you get to be a girl for the rest of your life, its a fantastic feeling.

It's done!  In about 6-8 weeks you'll be able to reap the benefits of all your efforts.  It only gets better from here!
