Yay, I did it! My surgery was delayed 1.5 hours which seemed like the longest hour ever. Still in hospital and hoping to get discharged tomorrow. Still a little shy on how much to eat so talking it slow. Each day is getting better with less tubes in me!!

Just to update you all

I talked to Dr Karmali's office today..... so they are currently booking people for surgery in Apr that were approved in Oct

I was approved at the end of Nov..... So I will have surgery probably June/July...... of course that depends on how much OR time is closed due to summer holidays...... but she said definately by Aug...... yay so excited its becoming reality finally :)

 

Are you friends with any of them on facebook?  If so they can add you to the group.  

Hey Everyone,

If any of you are on the face book group, could you please ask whoever it is that approves members to please please please approve me? I've requested to join multiple times since mid February, and still nothing.

A few of the ladies from my classes are on that, and I'd love to connect with them!

Thanks :)

I was there from 1h30 to 4h30.....you'll watch a video about all the steps to get your surgery....they do blood tests, hearth beats stuff, pulmonary capacity test, another one that I don't remember the name...but they put a q-tips in your nose, in the pelvic area and the holy hole ;) you will meat the nurse, an intern and an anesthetist (hope that I have the good words)...and maybe other stuff if you situation ask for it....for my self I had to do an X-ray.....
