Topic: RE: Blast and dang....
That stinks for you, had your hopes up and now you have to wait longer. But like the pp said, you want the right doctors in with you and so those extra days will be well spent in waiting for the right doctors to operate on you. But I bet those few days are going to seem like months for you!! Heck, if you waited this long to get surgery though, a few extra days won't kill ya I guess, huh??!
I'm actually scheduled for the 12 too, so we'll be surgery buddies! GL to you!

Hi Christie!
I can SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO relate with you. My surgery is on the 23rd and have done the same 2nd guessing etc and the realization that it is absolutely life changing and there is no turning back to the old ways ----------which is a good thing because it only got us into this trouble in the first place.
Sometimes I have to pinch myself to acknowledge that I really did make the decision and that I have already paid for my plane tickets and that it IS going to happen .... I think the main thing we have to hold on to is the committment to the plan; doing EXACTLY what we are instructed to do and not to sway.
I think you are pretty normal!!!!!!!!!!!
