Hi, my name is Christine, but please call me Chris. I'm 36 years old, married to sexy teddy bear named Eddie. We will be celebrating 7 years on December 27, 2006. I thought about having this surgery for 2 years prior to having it. I think that it was fitting (in more ways than one) that my surgery was July 11, 2006. My birthday is July 5th, so my re-birth and birthday are close to one another. Another reason I think it's fitting is because GOD and my parents gave me life and GOD and my parents gave me my re-birth. My insurance (Blue Cross of TN)wouldn't cover this surgery, so out of the blue my parents offered to pay for the surgery. I almost fell over when my parents told me what they wanted to do. I am so thankful for them, not just cause they paid for the surgery, but many other things.
