Topic: X-Post: Surgery Date Moved Up!
OK, so I was scheduled for surgery on December 8 - close, but not panic close. Well, my surgeon's office called me today, and they have changed the date to November 22. HOLY COW! That is LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AWAY! I'm feeling a little nervous (& a bit disappointed that I won't be able to indulge at Thanksgiving - I will still be on clear liquids - turkey broth, anyone?).

Obviously, I will keep everyone updated. Thank you so much for all your support!

Hi friends.  I have to admit today I feel nervous.  I have for the most part been just EXCITED.  Tomorrow I have pre op and nutrition class.  My schdule at work is showing me off next week and Darlene had here surgery today.  It is all so real.  I have never had surgeries and I am feeling funky.  Glad I have you two sharing my date though.  You always make me smile.
