Happy Monday
I realized today that it is only about 3 weeks before my surgery and I am starting to get very nervous I guess this is normal, my family is behind me but I have not told my aunt because she tends to push you the other way so I am not going to tell her until October when I see her and this way she can not push me he wrong way.
My mother has been here from AZ for almost a week and she went to a meeting with me so she can understand what is instore for the future. I am ready even thou I am very nervous. I have my test next week on the 5th and an appointment with Dr Barajas on the 7th so it is going very quickly.
I have submitted my Short term Disability forms for work...Usually how long are you out of work. I would love me to be out for the summer so I can be home with the kids!!!
Well, I want to thank everyone for all the support It is much appreciated
You are all Wonderful FRIENDS!!!!!
Hang in there Barbara, what you're feeling is perfectly normal. The last couple of weeks before surgery are a whirlwind of emotions. It will be here before you know it.
I didn't work at the time of surgery, but I can honestly say that in my case I would have needed to take off 2 1/2 to 3 weeks.
Won't be long before you're on the losing side. Like JA said, the first few weeks are a bit tough and then every day gets easier and easier.

congratulations on your coming surgery. the couple of weeks before mine were so busy i didn't have any time toget nervous. i did the night before but that went so quickly. i had been told not to eat after 12 the night of the surgery. they said i could eat anything i wanted to and had planned on having a steak but when it got to be dinner time i was so excited i just couldnl't eat. finally at 10 pm i thought i better eat something but wanted something light so i had a yogurt. by the time it was morning i was starving! hahaha i'd wished i'd made myself eat cause my surgery wasn't until 3 in the afternoon! the time will fly and soon you'll be sitting here with us on the losers bench. good luck and god bless pam
