I got my call from Lois today.  My surgery will be on Friday, October 12th.  I'm excited, nervous and happy.  I'm glad I don't have lots of time to worry and fret.  I just feel like I have so much to do before surgery.....any suggestions about what I need to be doing!

Breathe deep?  LOL.  No, seriously- here's a few things to keep you busy:

1 A good thorough house cleaning might be good, since it will be a little while before you'll be able to perform this duty

2. Start exercising a little bit every day- even if it's just a 10 minute walk- anything is better than nothing

3. Get a few small packages of protein powders to have on hand post surgery(GNC is selling packets now!)- not a lot though.  And a few staples (just a FEW!) from the grocery store- like NSA carnation instant breakfast, some soup, some pudding or jello and perhaps a diet drink mix that you like.  Dont overstock- you'd be surprised how LITTLE you will use and also it's nice to take a little 'get out of jail' trip to the store when you feel up to it. 4. Pack a tiny bag for the hospital, you won't need much- but be sure to include something comfy and roomy to wear home and maybe a family photo and a small comfort item that makes you feel good like a luxurious moisturizing lotion- it's nice to feel loved & human post-surgery. 5. Journal about how you're feeling I'm sure others will come up with more~  Good luck to you!!!

Best,

Wow - usually you don't get a date in such a short time!!  Congratulations :) When you pack your bag for the hospital throw in a tube of chapstick and a breath spray - I was so glad to have both of these when I was in the hospital!  Make sure when you get picked up there is a pillow in the car for you to hug on the ride home! Best of luck!
Warm Regards - Tammy -
