My date got changed from 10/13 to 10/18 :(

I just found out that my date got bumped up to 10/18. Darnit! I wasnt too thrilled about the 13 th day thingy, but i was ready to get this going, now i gotta wait 5 more days. I shouldnt complain because their are so many folks fighting like hell to get this surgery and cant. So i will just go with the flow and know that things happen for a reason. On the bright side it does give me a few more last suppers hee hee Erin

Hi Erin! Well I hear you on getting use to one date and then having it changed on you when your ready to get this on the ball...Mine was supose to be Oct.5 but was postponed because of 2 abnormal ekg`s..But I got the clear today from my stress test so now I am back on for the surgery just don`t have a exact date yet!! But I will soon! I wish you all the best on your upcoming surgery and keep us all updated on how your doing.. Hugs,Melissa

I know how you feel, but hang in there, it's only 5 days different and 10/18 sounds much nicer than 10/13. ;-D Hugs, Vi

I'm having my surgery on 10-18-05 as well, but I started the preop diet yesterday, my last supper was on 10-6-05, that sounds bad, the last supper. Just take 1 day at a time. Before you know it our day will be here, only 10 more to go. It will be worth the wait. Keep your chin up. Lot's of luck and have a great surgery and speedy recovery. Lisa J

I always wonder why that happens. If you are on the schedule, why do you get bumped? Who takes your place? I can understand an emergency, but it's obviously not an emergency, since they are letting you know nearly a week beforehand. LOL. I don't get it. Marcia
