Hi everyone. OMGoodness I am so happy right now WOOOHOOOOO. I just got back from my final appointment before I see the surgeon. It was pulmonary evaluation. I am gonna be honest, when I woke up this morning I wasn't in the best mood. Scared, nervous, you know the drill. Anyways, I got my act together, and my father in law came and got me to take mt to the appointment. well on the way there, the first part of my good news happened. I got a call from my PCP to tell me about the results from my diabetes test. I am not, I repeat AM NOT a diabetic..YAYYYYYYYY. I thought ok this day cannot get any better. Man was I wrong. So I went to the appointment, did the breathing test (wasn't bad at all) and got the x-rays they needed. I was kind of scared because the man that was doing the breathing test looked at me sort of funny so I thought, Oh no, this isn't good. Wrong again. The doctor came into the room and started talking to me. The whole time all I was thinking was, say the words, just say I am cleared. FINALLY after like 10-15 minutes of agony, he tells me, "Your results came back fine and you are cleared for surgery". I can not tell you the feeling I got. I wanted to laugh, cry, dance, just tell everyone I saw, I did it, I made it this far and I actually did it. Everyone, I am so happy right now. I honestly have never been this happy, except for when I had my kids. I have worked so hard the past few months getting to these appointments and having the money to cover the co-pay. I have never ever worked so hard in my life for something as I have for this surgery. I am so happy right now I could just scream. Ok well I just had to tell you all since you all are my support group as well as my friends. Thank you all so much for the support and prayers. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, sorry I had to get that out...lol
