Well, here we are. The night before surgery. Again, I can't believe it's here. I feel like I'm in an alternate reality. Thoughts now are just nervousness (is that a word?), excitement, anxiety... I'm trying to prepare myself for my new life and think about all the joys to come. This will be my last post before surgery, so the next time I type I will be on the LOSING side... pray for smooth, non-eventful surgery and no complications! I appreciate your prayers and support!!!

Once they give you the "I don't care medicine" all those feelings will just drift off into la la land! I'll be praying! Tell James to take good care of you! Alice
