3 days until surgery!!!

Hi everyone. I am soooo excited. I have 3 days left...here them...friday, saturday and then sunday!!!!! YEAY!!!!! I am so excited I feel like I could burst at the seams. I can't believe after 3.5 years, it's really happening. WOW. I have printed and mailed my "letters" and have the house cleaned from top to bottom and everything is in order. I have just exhausted myself from the excitement and not being able to sleep. I sometimes think that something is wrong with me...as everyone says you should be nervous going into this...but I'm really not. I wish I could explain it. I feel...content? Despite the outcome of the surgery, my boys are okay...and I am okay. I really believe it is in God's hands and his will is what will be...I have no control over that, so I can't stress over it. I have had so many surgeries (due to the accident with my knees) that I don't even fear the idea of "going to sleep"...I honestly welcome it...it makes me relax and it's the only times that I seemed to have gotten SOLID sleep for a few hours over the past 8 years (between the boys, the husband and the darn injuries...) I have my final pre-op tomorrow and the required pregnancy test. I can't believe it is all really happening to me...someone told me about a year ago, that despite every obstacle that kept preventing the surgery, that my turn will come...and it really has! Please pray for this sinus infectin to go away overnight so the doctor won't cancel my surgery!!!! I took some Tavist D ? yesterday...as my paper work said to discontinue any medication 5 days prior to surgery. That left me wedn, thur, fri, sat and sun, so I think I'm okay. The post nasal drip was making my throat raw and I had to do something to prevent that! So nose spray it has been for me today. I am bringing the box to the doctor so that he can see what it was that I was taking. Pray for me!!!!!!! I love you all for all your kind words and encouragement throughout this journey. You are a great crew (I just wish I lived closer to Miami so I could do some of the cool things that I see you all post about!!!!)

Hey Laurie, I'm praying for you and you'll do fine, I feel it in my heart, and Dr. Nye will keep you safe. Gargle with sal****er before going to bed. Big hugs coming your way... Jerrie

Good luck Laurie!! I am also in Pensacola!! I was approved through Tricare on Monday in like 4 hours! I was sooo happy! I have a surgery date of July 12th unless someone cancels or gets bumped. I wish you all the strength and endless encouragement! (((HUGS)))

Everything will be fine you are in gods hands! Many blessings and hugs to you and your family. I can not wait until I am able to have mine!

best wishes and a speedy recovery

Wow! I can just feel your excitement/nervous energy in your post! I am so happy for you that this is finally happening after so long a wait. Good luck! ::sending LOTS of healthy surgery vibes::

Hi Laurie------- CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Woo Hoo I know you are excited. I had RNY 4 years ago---and PS 2 months ago. Let me tell you- I am just like you. Nobody could have told me anything about the surgeries(either one) I was so ready. I wasn't nervous either. When you want something as bad as I wanted WLS. There was nothing to stop me. I will send prayers your way. GOD BLESS you in your journey....and if you need a friend let me know.
