To those of you who faithfully followed this blog for Erica's weight loss, I thank you so much. I apologize for not posting more often, but her weight loss now is very small and hardly noticeable.
What has been noticeable, for those of you who interact with her, is her intense hip pain. It's bad and has been getting steadily worse for the past few months. I am thankful that Erica did lose the weight she did otherwise the pain would have been worse than unbearable. It was clear that Erica needed a hip replacement and those of you who read this blog were aware that it was tentatively scheduled for February of 2010. As time wore on and the pain got worse, it became clear that February was not an option, it had to be sooner.
The good news is I nagged and badgered until Erica went to Dr. Laster to see about scheduling an earlier surgery, which has now been scheduled for Wednesday, December 30th, at 10:30 a.m.
I promise I will keep you all up to date with the latest on her progress. I am just overjoyed that she'll soon be able to walk without pain.
Happy Holidays to all of you!!

Thank you for the blog link. It will be interesting to follow your and Erica's progress through this newest development. And to read about your travels. Will there be room for all of us on the 31st when we come to watch the parade? Oh and visit with Erica? :-)
