I have a date!!!!
I haven't posted in a long time. Our computer bit the dust...so we ended up buying a new one.
My surgery date is May 19th!!! I switched to Dr. Hardy in Ames. He was very personable and did all the interviewing himself. I really liked that. My husband went to the consult with me so he could ask questions as well. It all went so well.
I am so excited I can hardly stand it.
I have started walking(every night for 30 minutes), taking a vitamin, fruit and vegetable concentrate supplement and drinking water. I have always been a good water drinker, so that part was easy. I stopped sodas completely and cut down on fried foods and sweets. I am so ready for the surgery. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Just wanted to share with some people who truly know where I am coming from.
Thank you all fro your support, encouragement and just walking the journey with me,
Tammy





Wow, Tammy! Good for you - May 19th will be here in no time at all. Keep up the good wor****il then. Did the surgeon tell you anything about the liver and a low carb diet? My surgeon put me on a low carb diet before surgery to shrink the size of the liver thus making surgery "easier".
Until surgery - keep reading, researching and posting so you can continue to get support in this beginning stage of your journey!
God bless,
Andrea
