HEY ALL!! SURG. DATE FINALLY SCHEDULED IM A LITTLE NERVOUS BUT EXCITED,CAN'T WAIT TO BEGIN A NEW LIFE JOURNEY. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EVERYONE AND GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU !! LYNN R, LOCKHART SOUTH CAROLINA

Congratulations, Lynn!! We share the same surgery date, so I can fully relate to what you may be feeling with the nervousness and excitement! This is a second date for me. I was originally scheduled for November 16th, but four days prior, the doctor postponed it until the 7th of December. Agony prolonged! LOL! But it is getting really close now, and I hope this is it! Please know I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers as that day approaches. God bless you! Pat

Hi Lynn, We have the same surgery date. I'm like you--nervous but really excited as well. It doesn't seem possible that it's almost time. My surgeon schedules a pre-op meeting with the patients scheduled for 12/7--so we get to meet each other on 12/2 and meet with him individually as well. Kinda nice, I guess then when you're in the hospital you know a few others there in your same condition. I'm so glad I heard about this website I've gotten encouragement from so many and have learned so much from everyone's profiles. Maybe we can keep up with each other's progress as we begin our new journey? May God bless, Vivian

Lynn, I am happy for you I wish you a speedy recovery
