My surgery was yesterday...

...and everything went VERY WELL.  Thank you, God.  I really was scared I wouldn't wake up, and shed a fair amount of tears over the idea.  I learned from my fear that I love my life and want to live it to the fullest!

In a way, I can't believe I did it!  I've thought about it hypothetically for many years.  To be post-op feels quite surreal, but very good.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!!! Now the best part, the rest of your life!!!

I am SO happy everything went well!  Mine is on the 22nd..so please keep me posted on how things are!

Welcome back!  See you on the other side on monday 12/22.  Congratulations!

I am glad everything went well.

I think I know what you mean about not believing you did it.  I kept saying the same thing to myself in the hospital afterwards.  I honestly believe it is the bravest thing I have done in my entire life.

Congrats and good luck!
