3 days until surgery!

I have 3 days before surgery on March 6th. I never thought I would get here and it happened so fast. My insurance was approved within 24 hours and my surgery is exactly 6 weeks from when I saw my surgeon for the first time. It's been hectic and fast paced. I never thought I would have so many emotions going in me at the same time! I just want it to be over with now. So far I have lost about 16 pounds for surgery and hope alot more afterwards. My friends have been so supportive. My kids are just great too about the whole thing. Allison

Allison- I hope that you have a speedy recovery. I totally understand the myriad of emotions just a few days before surgery! It will be here and "over" before you know it...you'll be tucked safe and sound into your hospital bed on the losing side! If you need anything, please reach out to us here....we'll try to help.

Your big day is almost here Allison. The crazy emotions is normal. Try not to get too worked up between now and then. Can't wait to welcome you to the losing side. Courtney

Allison, I will be praying for you, because I too will be having mine that day. Good luck. I haven't heard if my insurance has approved it and I don't even know what time surgery is yet. Do you? Maria

My insurance was approved within 24 hours. My surgery is scheduled for 7:30 am Tuesday morning. Worst part is trying to get my daughter up at 4 am to drive me to the hospital! I'm at Fair Oaks hospital in Fairfax.

Wooooohooooo you are almost there Allison! Not too much longer. All the emotions are normal for sure. You will be so glad you did this. I am only a little over a month out and I feel so much healthier then I did. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers on your special day!!! Godbless and Godspeed!! Anna

You will be on the losing side very soon. Relax and wishes to a speedy recovery. My surgeon was Dr M as well, he's great. Good success! ~moni
