I am also a July 24ther, and already packed my bag. I am not nervous about the surgery, but about getting everything ready at home and elsewhere. I still have a stress test this Thursday and once I am cleared by the cardiologist I am all set. Preops are Monay, I had to push them back to get in the stress test. I have PVCs, which usually do not mean anything, but they want to be safe and sure, fine by me. Good luck to all those who are coming up on their surgery dates and well wishes for all those past.

Good luck Cyndi - you will be fine! I am going in after you on the 22nd and I'll be praying for you! Tracy
