    Ok ladies......I have a confession..... to my TaTa's...

    Most of you know me by Laura..... have known me by my first name since 08/09. WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

    I am actually not the first... very active poster on BCO named Laura.......

    Oh yes... there are many Laura's on BCO.... but not so many with 5800 posts...LOL ( my mouth)

    anyway.......

    LAURA GTO ( she is a NEW Tatasister to Vegas this year).... she is ACTUALLY one of the original active posting Laura's....HEHE    She was here... on BCO... helping others..... giving advice.... and fighting for the American Way ( lol ) longggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg before this Laura showed up.

    So I wanted to introduce her to you all....... she has been on BCO since 2005.... and though, I have never met her .... outside of FB and here..... I feel safe in saying.... she is going to be a welcomed TATA SISTER!

    Welcome " Laura #1" to the group....:) Actually.... I think I will call her...GTO.

    Welcome to ALL THE NEW sisters I do not know yet also...

    Hi Ladies!

    So I finally broke down and went and got my pap, I had been putting it off because I'm sick of doctors lol.  But since my monthly gift came back with a bang about 7 months ago I thought maybe I should do it.  This month that "gift" stuck around for 2 dang weeks!  

    Well Ladies looks like I will be joining those of you that have had hysto's recently.  I am not looking forward to having surgery but I am looking forward to having it gone.  Anyways I have to see a urologist on the 12th and then I will schedule it.  I'll keep you all updated.  I guess my surgeon will be using the Da Vinci for my surgery, anyone have this done?  I was hoping for a tummy tuck LOL but guess thats not going to happen dang it LOL.  

    I can't wait for Vegas!

    Teresa

    Teresa - so sorry to hear this.  I've not had this surgery but I've heard the Da Vinci method is very much easier to recover from.

    Teresa I read about that somewhere on the bc site... I regret not telling my doctor to take about a inch of extra skin if he had to do it c section way.  If possible I would try to avoid doing it c section way not fun at all.  I'm getting stronger and finally getting some short walk in but miss being active and having more energy.

    Teresa,  i had a hysterectomy  in 2008 and my dr used the DaVinci.  It was amazing how quickly i healed, and how good i felt.  Sandys right about the c section way not being fun....I  had an ovary with a 28 cm tumor removed, in 2007,,via a vertical incision that went from my pubic to an inch above my belly button, 30 staples later,,,,the davinci is da way to go!!!!  good luck to you, and i cant wait to see everyone in vegas..

    oh yeah,,,,who are the shoppers in this vegas group?????

    ta-ta for now,  Karen

    WOW...I am so "touched"...THANKS for the warm welcome! I am looking SOOOOOOOOOOOO forward to meeting you girls. "other" Laura...you rock! I talked to Stephanie on the phone last night...just wanted to get the Vegas scoop - she "filled me in". Thanks so much!

    Theresa - Best wishes to you...

    Again...THANKS for the warm welcome. Look out Vegas...here we come!

    OH and btw...I am an imposter! At the time of my first Mastectomy, I had an expander put in...IT WAS SO FRICKIN painful, two weeks later at the time of my node dissection, I had the PS join in to REMOVE it. So, needless to say, I am breastless! LOL But...I will pack my waterproof proths for the Vegas trip. Don't laugh at me! LOL LOL LOL

    LauraGTO -- the only requirement for this club is that you had breast cancer.  So you are no imposter.  I'm sorry you had it.  Sorry you joined us.  Hope you never get it again.  And so glad we will get to meet you in Vegas!

    LauraGTO-your a kick, will fit right in with this crazy wonderful group of gals!! I too am one fo the Breastless-there are a couple of us. I'll be there in spirit with you Laughing

    Teresa-Sorry you have to go thru this. I too had a full Hysterectomy back in 2009. Mine was done abdominaly due to the diverticulitis & all the hernias. Incision from public up past bellly button-mine was diffucilt, lost alot of blood had to have a transfusion..ect  ect, anyways, bounced back as soon as I got home. Didn't get to have the tummy tuck, but that is coming  LOL LOL  Next major surgery....reason I don't get to come to this 3rd reunion. All the scar tissue has made things difficult in everyday living & infections under the flap-So lucky me, I get to have a medical tummy tuck,  You'll do great & were all here Praying for you for a quick recovery!!

    Love you all (((HUGS)))  Take care  Chow  XOXO Susie

    Was checking out Las Vegas for you gals last week - they have a zip line ride above Freemont street below the TV screen.  Was a blast.  Quading not so good - broke my wrist  - let's just say Guide error of judgement.  Susie - so gonna miss you this year.

    GTO - welcome from us Canadian tata sisters   - so looking forward to meeting the new sisters and catching up with those from last year.

    WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Saskie -- so sorry you broke your arm.

    I have to say my favorite part of going to Fremont Street was riding in the stripper bus (as we called it) -- ok it was, I believe, a Party Bus.  But it had stripper poles. 

    Alas, I kinda felt that Fremont Street itself was just okay.  Maybe we should just ride around in a party bus :)  (JK!)

    Lilah I like the idea of riding around in a party bus

    Sorry - can't remember I think maybe was $40.00 for my son and I but not sure.   Will try to dowload my picture to the tata site on facebook once I get these darn books caught up - a little harder to do with one hand.

    Hey ladies,

    Haven't been on in about a week or so.  I have been so busy with work. I just got over being sick for the past 2 weeks but was able to work all last week since I had no choice. I was off the week before..(all 5 days). Good thing I have a state government job and a boss who really likes me. LOL.

    Can't wait till Vegas. I really miss all of you and cannot wait to meet all the newbys.

    My ps just scheduled my next revision surgery for June 8. This will be my 5th surgery and I think I will need one more after this to be totally done:). Ahhhh finally.

    You ladies are always in my thoughts a prayers. You are all my second family of sisters <3<3<3.

    Hi everyone! Looking forward to our Vegas trip coming up. Keep checking on the post to see what everyone has to say. Question: Do you need to use the force of your arms and legs when doing the zip line?

    Saskie sorry to hear that you broke your wrist sounds like you had fun in the process of it.

    LaurieGTO welcome to the group all is welcome. We have sister in all necks of the woods.

    Susie Show is your healing coming along? I love to scrapbook too!

    Hannahbearsmom: Tessa it was so great meeting you! Hope to see you in Vegas!

    Packergirl: thanks, getting brain scan on Friday. See Dr next Wednesday and find out what the brain scan said and what my maintenance care is going to be. I hate waiting.

    Jkz: that sounds like a real deal!

    Juli: I love to shop too especially the deals and I have a granddaughter....oh yay!

    Lilah: riding the party bus sounds like fun. What day are you thinking we do that? Who is working on the scheduling do you know?

    Thank to you all behind the scenes.
