Hi everyone! It's me again! LOL  Well maybe you noticed I got my new date! The hospital called me this morning. We talked a bit and they gave me the 28th of September. WOW I know I said I wasn't going till the new year but when they called and we talked about it I decided not to wait. Last night my husband and I talked it over as well and I said I would call this morning to let them know I wanted it before Jan. Then this morning I said nope not calling then they called me so I took it!! I just couldn't wait anymore. I am sooooo scared and worried and so many other feelings right now and it's hard to cope with it! Sometimes it helps to have a friend to just lean on or vent, unfortunately friends is one thing I don't have other then Beth and some I met on here. No one I can call to go for coffee or something. All mine moved on family's jobs and just life, I lost contact with them after I got married. Anyhow.....
That same day of my surgery my mother is going to the hospital to get the light done. Just over 2 years ago she almost died. She had a massive blood clot in her lung. They also found a tumor in her bladder they got it out, thank god!! She has to get tested every 3 to 6 months now she is due so this is all nerve racking for both of us.
Well I won't bore anyone with all this. lol I post so often I'm sure some of you wish I would quit lol

Take care cause we care
Hugs all 
Denise

Denise this is awesome news for you and for me to hear, I am so excited for you as well and I will be there with you on your surgery day as I have that day off I wouldn't have it any other way my dear.   I certainly wish we did live a bit handier for me to come over for coffee with you and to visit but no worries there Moncton is not that far away that I can't come up for visits on my days off.  Before you know it you will be having your surgery and it will all be behind you and you will be coming a healthier you and feel so much better.  I am thinking about you up here in Montreal this morning as Brandon and I are getting ready for our trip to the hospital for many tests they will be doing on Brandon today at the Shriners then we may be taking in the Shriners Circus which we were told is in town so that will be awesome to see and probably so much bigger then what it use to be when it came to Saint John.  I will keep you posted on things here and you take care there and can't wait for your surgery..

lots of hugs

WOW!  I am so happy for you Denise.  Your surgery in a week...I can't believe it!  I'm coming to see you.  We just need to figure out when.  Do you work right now or is your schedule pretty open. I would like to bring my husband as well so if your husband was home it would be great to meet you both.  I am off all this week however am going to Bangor on Thursday til Sunday.So do you need to do the boost for a week?  I want to hear all the details.

 Hi Angela! Hope all is well with you now!! I can't believe it either. Glad you will be coming up I can't wait to meet you! As for me working I haven't in almost 10 years. The worse my back got and my hips and knees the less I could do. Then I started to gain weight then I was in my wheel chair. I walk in the apartment a bit but not much. I can't stand or sit to long.
My husband is in school all week he can only take 2 days off next week for my surgery. Let me know when you can come up. You can ask Beth tomorrow for my number and give me a call. If no one is here leave a message!
As for the details, I take 5 boost a day or if I can get meditrim take 1 a day and 4 boost. I have enough meditrim for 1 a day!
Angela thank you so much for helping me its means so much to me!!!
Talk soon

Denise that is wonderful news. I am so happy for you, do it and never look back!  Does that mean the Dr. is back on schedule and the mold problem is cleared up? I have been hoping everything would get back on track to get the surgeries moving again. It has been going a bit backwards the last little bit for sure. Keep us updated! Trish

Hi Trish! Been awhile since I seen you post. I hope all is well your way! Thanks for your kind words and yes I will keep everyone updated! I can't wait till Tuesday gets here. I am so nervous and scared!! I know it is for the best and I will be healthy again, but just the same still very scarey!
The mold problem is taken care of. Didn't take to long either. Talk again.
