Topic: Only hours to go until surgery!
At 4:30am I head off to the hospital for pre-op testing and prep. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! This time tomorrow I'll be hopefully recovering.

I'm starting to get a little scared and nervous about this whole thing and am wondering why the hell I am doing this to myself. I really do hope this will work for me, for all of us. I want this to be worth all of the financial strain, headaches, nasty liquid foods, and stress I've endured to get to this point, YK?!

I also have mine on the 27th. Nervous now. Thanksfully I didn't have to go on any kind of diet only the pre-op diet and the cleaning. We will come out of this GREAT!! Our life start all over again and this time we have to take advantage of it and enjoy every minute of it.

 

Good luck everyone

Topic: Surgery April 29
I'm so excited today - it is my LAST Thursday of being so frustrated about not being healthy, not being able to lose weight, searching DESPERATELY for something in my closet that fits THIS week.....

All week, I've been busy getting things ready - I have my post op protein powders, vitamins, thermometer (can you believe I didn't have one?), pill crusher. Bought sugar-free jello, popsicles, cream soups, pudding, crystal light, sugar-free syrup for my shaved ice maker - making homemade beef and chicken broths this weekend. Have arranged for my dog to be boarded overnight, have a ride TO hospital (working on the FROM part - may have to pay a million dollars for a cab ride). Daughter will come to tend to me for a couple of days (she doesn't drive or would pick me up). My boss (who is awesome) has hired a temp to take on some of my workload so I won't be overwhelmed when I get back (I'm in IT, so it gets crazy if I'm not there).

I AM SO READY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I DO find I'm getting a little nervous......part of me wishes it would hurry up and get here so that I could get on with it, the other wants to savor these last few days - course, the liquid diet makes "savoring" a bit tough

Yes there are others the 29th, but I will let my friends tell it themselves, so don't feel lonely.  I'm hanging in there with you, and wishing you well, while I keep you in prayer.  I'll ask God to give your team wisdom and knowledge.  God bless you, Mary

Hello everyone, I just dropped in to tell you I will be praying the morning of the 27th for each of you.  I'll ask God to give your surgeon and the team wisdom and knowledge, and that you are treated with respect and compassion.  Blessings to each of you.
