October 4th surgery date

Hey! I have my surgery on the 4th as well... I am terrified and anxious and ready to get it over with all at the same time!! Speedy recovery to all of us! Denise

Trish....good luck! My surgery date is also on October 4th, 2004. Here's some useless facts for 10/4: October 4, 1824----Mexico becomes a Republic October 4, 1854----Abraham Lincoln made his 1st political speech at Illinois State Fair October 4, 1904----1st day of NYC subway, 350,000 people ride October 4, 1933----Esquire magazine is 1st published October 4, 1957----USSR launches Sputnik I, 1st artificial Earth satellite October 4, 1984----US government closes down due to budget problems October 4, 1988----Pillsbury stock soars $18.37 to $57.37 on takeover bid What this means for us? I have no freakin' idea, but the Pillsbury fact hits home for me. I *love* their cookies! No more after 10/4... ;) jam

My date is also the 4th. I've waited 2 yrs for this and I'm glad its so near. Yes even I'm a little nervous. Mainly of being alone after surgery.

Hi ya'll, My surgery date is October 4,too! Let's all pray for one another and not worry about ourselves too much! Isn't this a wonderful chance to make a change in our lives!? Karen
