Disappointed

Yesterday, I arrived at the hospital promptly at 5:30 as instructed.  I then filled out tons of paperwork and got undressed. My nurse was helping me put on the stocking that you have to wear during surgery, and bam! Another nurse came in and said that my surgery was canceled because my doctor was sick.  I cannot explain the amount of disappointment that I felt right at that moment. Oh well. I have to call on Monday to get a new date.

I can't begin to imagine the disappointment you must've felt!  Just know that, even if we don't get the "why", there's a reason for everything that happens!  Your "right" date will come and it will be a phenomenal success!  Besides... would you really want a sick doctor operating on you?  Ew

I'm praying your new date isn't too far off!!  (It'd suck to have to re-meet insurance deductibles, etc.)  Keep us posted on the new info!

That really stinks.

I hope you get a new date soon.

I'm sorry that your doc was sick. I hope Monday they give you a nice quick date, waiting is a killer.  I do have to say, I went in on 11/26 and didn't end up having surgery . (Hives from nerves)  When I did go in on 12/11, I felt more at eas about it.  Everything happens for a reason, you want your doc to be in top health for your surgery.  Still, sorry you're disappointed.
