Hello everyone, I just told myself that I have 3 weeks to go until my surgery date. My heart started pounding. WOW 3 weeks. I feel like it has taken for ever, and now it is going so fast. I have learned so much from this site, and I have meet some of the most wonderful people in the world. And some of these people I have meet face to face. I am not the kind to usually go out and just meet people, but I know that you all here are going threw the same kind of life I am. It has been so comforting to know that we do not walk this path alone. Now that I am getting closer, I would like to ask some of you post-ops for some sugestions. I go to my pre-op on May 23. What questions do I ask? What do I need to bring to the hospital? What do I need to have at home? Any helpful advise on pain. What to avoid, you know all that stuff. Thanks again for being such wonderful friends...Also thanks for all the encourging words to my freind Wendy, I know she is comforted by your warm wishes. You are all so GREAT! God Bless!
