Anyone else getting nervous?
Hello Jean! I have about 27 days to go and one minute I am nervous, the next minute I am nesting and trying to get things done before surgery and then the next minute I am so excited! I think alot of people began to get nervous as their date approaches. We have spent so long trying to get the surgery that it just doesn't seem real that it is actually going to happen very soon.
Today my nerves are not with the surgery but with my pre-op weigh in. I have to be at 259 this morning for my appt. My scale say 260, so I have lost 45 lbs. Surgeon set a goal of 46 lbs (259) for me as of today!!! I do understand your nerves tho. I get excited then nervous then excited. I try to focus on all the positives. Hope you can keep busy so the time flees by quickly.
Am I ever! Not about the surgery persay...but about the fires whipping through San Diego, right near the hospital where I'm having my surgery on Nov. 11th. Flights have been cancelled and extremely delayed into San Diego. I'm wondering what's happening to those who have dates this week. Also, my daughter is just getting over a terrible headcold, and my husband called from work today saying he's coming down with it bad. My, oh my!
Best wishes on your surgery and speedy recovery! It's the best thing you can do for yourself.
Hi Jean, I have 22 days, but who's counting! =} I haven't really progressed to nervous yet, I think I'm still too far out. But the reality of it all hit me today. I had to tell my employer. I have a great boss and it went over really well, she's even going to let me work some overtime so that I won't run out of pay during my recovery time! My prayers will be with your for an uneventful surgery and speedy recovery!
I also have 14 days to go and I am extremely nervous. I felt really good about it until this morning when I read on the main message board that a girl had just died from complications and she was only 30. Then I became very tearful and have been all day. People on the main message board have been very encouraging and supportive. Read some of the responses on there and see if it doesn't make you feel better.
Every morning I wake I think. Wow! So close. Nesting very much. Fells sort of like it did before my son was born. I keep reading all the info I can get my hands on. But, no matter how much I read I don't think I will ever be fully prepared for the life change that is going to happen in only one week. Best of luck to you in your journey. (((Hugs))) Michelle
