Today is the day
This morning is my surgery. I had a tough time sleeping last night. Woke up every hour it seemed and looked at my alarm clock. So finally at 3:30am I got up and took my shower and I am dressed and waiting for hubby to wake up. It's just about 4am and we have to be at the hospital at 5:30am. Will take about 45 minutes to get there. I am not feeling as nervous this morning as I had been the past couple of days. Yesterdays liquid diet was easier than I though it would be. Lots of chicken broth and water!! I think I lost 5 pounds lol. Anyway I think I hear hubby up and about now. Wish me luck today. I am excited now. Glad the jitters are over for now. Once I get the hospital I am sure my white coat syndrome will kick in again though.. but I am just happy today is the day and will be the start of a new life for me..... a better life. Thank you to everyone who has commented on my blog or sent me well wishes.. it really means a lot to me.
Hugs to everyone, Dona
