Hi everyone,

I'm new around these parts and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jenn and I'm a 33 yr old Mother of 2 great kids and wife to an awesome man in Pittsburgh. I'm scheduled for surgery in 8 Short days with Dr. Anita Courcoulas at Magee Womens  Hospital here in Pittsburgh.

I'm ridiculously excited about this, but also a bit nervous!  I think that's pretty normal though.  I've been blogging to try to keep myself "sane". It'e helpful to get my feelings out there and I like that I can look back at it when I'm having a rough day and remind myself in my own words WHY I'm doing this. 

In any case, I just wanted to say hello and look forward to connecting with you all for the inevitable advice and help that I'm sure to need as I continue with this journey.
