Topic: RE: April 14th
I went to a seminar back in July and thought it would take forever to get to where I am now.  My pre-op is on 3/23 and 3/25 I start my pre-op diet (that I will learn about on the 23rd).  I am on OH CONSTANTLY now - looking at before/after pictures and learning all I can about what to expect.  My psych eval showed no mental health issues, but I am feeling a little OCD about the surgery!

Yes it is surreal!  It is a weird feeling, that it is finally here--well almost.  I had started my journey back in June with all of the assessments, and I go March 27th for my pre op appt where I will be placed on some diet for 2 weeks like everyone else said, and then my surgery date will be here before I know it.  Im trying to be so patient.......thanks for writing to me, good luck to you....Jill

Topic: RE: Looks like I'm the only one for April 17
I was supposed to be on Wednesday, May 6.  But my co-worker's son is getting married on the 16th and both of us can't be out of the office at the same time.  Dr. Lord's office looked at the calendar and said, "Dr. Lord doesn't normally do surgeries on Fridays, but they've been letting me book the OR on Friday."  So she moved me UP to April 17.  2 positives for this: (1) I'm the only patient for that day, so Dr. Lord will be fresh and not tired from multiple surgeries AND (2) my date got moved forward!

4 weeks and counting....I'm excited for you!  See you on the loser's bench!

Dawn -

It seems like most of us are scheduled for Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday I actually have everyone written down on a calendar so I can see at a glance who is on what day.  I'm 4 weeks out as of today!

Topic: APRIL 7TH (12 BEFORE 47TH BDAY)
 My emotions are all over the map, anxiety, excitement, nervousness. Probably all normal, but intense just the same. I'd love a Surgery Date Buddy to go thru this with.
