Topic: RE: Looking to meet those who went to Mexico

I went to Mexicali with Dr. Aceves a year ago Feb 6/12. I work near Mayfield Inn and currently live in Morinville. I would be interested in coffee meet ups :)

Haha... I am sure there will be lots of mothers there. My name is Joan! Maybe we will end up in the same room. How long were you at the pre admission clinic. What exactly do they do?

We'll make some room on the bench.  Good luck with your surgery and recovery.  You will do great!

I have my surgery on Wednesday too....I'm leaving Cold Lake Tuesday afternoon to sleep in town...I had my pre-surgery on the 6th....don't know yet what time I have to be at the hospital....

 

do you have any ideas on how we can connect over there? I though about asking to the nurses if mother1973 is there but i'm not sure if they'll know you on this name...hahahahah

Oops. Meant to post here instead instead of the RNY forum.

Got a call and I will be hitting the losers bench tomorrow at 11:30. I have to be there at 9:30, in just a short 17 hours. Such mixed emotions right now. Nervous? Yes. Anxious? yes. Excited? Yes. Prepared? Yes. Ready to begin my new lifestyle? Absolutely!!!

I was first referred to Dr. Nohr mid 2009 and when I was told there was a 3 year wait time, I remember feeling disappointed/upset about that, however, took that time to keep trying on my own, did a ton of research and BOOM, 3 years passed. It really was amazing at just how fast the time went by.

Please make some room on the loser's bench!!

Thanks I never thought of calling my nurse. That is a great idea!

I don't have a red flower but I would love to connect... When is your surgery?

I am getting very excited! I just finished packing my bag today. I live in Calgary so i am just going to stay the next two days right in Edmonton is beats having to travel back and forth. I have pre-admission clinic tomorrow. Final weigh in on Tuesday and then surgery day.

I don't personally have paperwork to get dr karmalli to sign, but in my recent maintain the change class the nurse told us that it is best to take your paperwork to the hospital. Most likely it will be signed while you are there, but on the off chance it isn't you can just call your nurse and she will arrange to get it signed.

Good luck!
