Questions

Surgery is Friday at 9 am how do I find out who my angel is? 

Is there anything else I need to know before I go on Friday?

Thanks
Theresa

2 things that I was glad I did. One is to bring chapstick. You won't be able to have water until they do an exray and make sure everything is as it should be. Your lips will get dry. The other thing is a pillow to put between you and the seatbelt. Congrats on your impending surgery!

Theresa,

Angels aren't automatically assigned to you. You need to pick out a member you admire or like and ask them to be your angel.

Here's a list of things to take to the hospital or surgery center:

• Insurance ID card
• Photo ID
• A copy of your advance health care directive
• CPAP machine (if you use one)
• A list of your medications (you may be instructed to bring the actual meds with you)
• Lip gloss
• Toothbrush, toothpaste and essential toiletries
• Cosmetics (if you must)
• IPod or MP3 player
• Laptop computer (if you must)
• Something to read
• Loose-fitting clothing (elastic waist)
• A change of underwear
• Slip-on shoes or sandals
• Pillow(s) for the ride home
• A water bottle for the ride home

Congratulations on being banded!
