 You're right - it's the one inserted into your bladder...I'm just freaked out about it, because I've never even been admitted to a hospital before. Major stomach surgery - no problem...urinary catheter - oy! lol

uhm, ok what is a foley catheter. I know what a catheter is, and I am hoping this is just a simple urine type one. LOL

 I guess I'm the only 28er in this thread not to fear something crazy happening and stalling surgery. I think we've all been through a heck of a lot to get to this point, and I was nervous from the get-go that I wouldn't be approved or something. But ever since my approval came through from my insurance company, the only thing I'm fearing is that foley catheter - lol

Good luck 28ers!  You know, like 49ers...except better. ;)

 Congratulations! My surgeon's office called me while I was in the grocery store, of all places, to tell me I was approved. I can't believe it's only two days away. Good luck girl!
