It's like waiting for Christmas.....

Today I had my psych appointment with Dr. Keller in Moore.  It actually was a lot different than I thought it would be.  I was expecting some sort of interrogation, like he would just be looking for a reason to say nope, sorry, no surgery for you!  But instead he was such a nice guy and really said some things that I found to be helpful and comforting.  It's like every time I leave one of my required appointments, I feel even more convinced that this is the right choice for me.  Which makes waiting for an actual date that much harder.  I feel like a kid waiting on Christmas.  Tentatively my surgery should be scheduled for some time in August, and I know the time will pass by quickly.  Even still, I feel like Veruca Salt in Willy Wonka - "I want it now!"  :)
I am going to use this time to keep making some changes, getting myself ready, and continuting to learn, learn, learn so I can be as prepared as possible.  I feel hopeful.....which is something I haven't felt in a long time.  It's a good feeling.......

 August will be here before you know it.    Good for you, using this time productively.   Getting emotionally and mentally ready for surgery is as important as being physically ready.

You'll do great!!!

waiting is the worst! but it is definately worth all the hard work and waiting!

You won't believe how fast your body will change after surgery. Once you have a date, you might want to spend some time, cleaning your closet of all the winter clothes that will be too big.

Good luck!

I JUST GET SO EXCITED WHEN SOMEONE IS SO CLOSE TO HAVING SURGERY!!! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!
