I doubt you will get bumped 

I was just told that I won't be able to have it done now till the 30th 

so looks like I will be after you now

I am so bitter right now, can't stop crying

Topic: Worse day Ever!!!

Well I was booked for surgery On Jan 3rd at the DECH...it was cancelled due to no beds

Today I was scheduled, went there was told everything was a go, go changed, did my admission paper, and was waiting to be wheeled down to the OR...AND WAS CANCELLED AGAIN...No beds at the DECH 

I am not going to lie I Bawled like a baby 

waiting to hear what the hell I am supposed to do now...stay on liquids???when am I going to have surgery??? what do I tell my boss??? I took time off work and found a replacement, and husband took time off work as well...I am sooooo upset 

starting to feel like this was not meant to be at all, My Surgeon was in surgery and I wasn't able to talk to him before they ushered me out the door..

I feel Like I have been kicked in the gut...and I still don't have any answers

Topic: Support group?

So I don't know what kind of feedback this is going to get, or if there's even any interest in it at all.  I only know of two people in the city who have had the sleeve surgery.  One I see once in a blue moon in passing at the gym, and another one I see once in a while at my work as a customer.  Neither provide real opportunity to sit down and discuss what we went through, or are going through currently, or what to expect further down the road.  I don't think there is a support group set up anywhere for sleeve patients (and if there is, please enlighten me as I'd love to know more!) But if anyone in the Fredericton area would like to get together and hang out, or ask questions, or just to meet another person who has been through the same fears and surgery please let me know.  Let's go for a walk when it's nicer out, let's meet up for coffee, let's go out to eat and share an appetizer! lol  

Hit me up here, or send me a message.  I am lucky and have a wonderful family support, but I'd like the opportunity to meet someone else who has gone (or is thinking of going) through the same thing.  The ups and downs, the triumphs and lows... let's be friends :)

OH NO!!!! This is so not fair.  Do you at least live nearby?  Are you just supposed to go in at 6:30 and then hope that you';ll be done????? I am crossing all the fingers and all the toes that this will go off without a hitch.  Think positive.
