change is comming fast!

I had my pre-op appointment and class last week in Scottsdale. Dr. Blackstone is as awesome as everyone told me she was. It seems strange after all the long years of fighting , to finally be weeks away from accompishing the goal of surgery. NOW IT'S REALITY! I have to admit, I am scared and nervious and excited and a million other emotions all at once. I almost psyched myself out of doing this a couple of times. I am trying to remain focused on why I am doing this! To be haealthy and active again. Besides I will have a daughter to take care of in a couple of short months. Marcie is doing well, and we are hopeful that the specialist will tell us everything is fine next week. The Bleeding stoped weeks ago, and the only other complication is low amniotic fluid. Things are about to change and change fast! I hope I am up to the challenge! Richard I Surgery scheduled June 25th 8:00 am

I almost psyched myself out of doing this. Today.  The insurance specialist for my surgeon was getting everything together today to submit for my approval.  She called to ask me a few questions, and after I got off the phone with her I was really excited that the process is moving along.  I might have approval soon, woohoo.   Then it happened, my stomach just sank.  I got that fluttery almost faint feeling.  Holy crap, its really going to happen.  I'm really doing this.  I completely panicked.  Ugh.   Feeling better now, but I definitely can sympathize the million emotions.

I know you are up to the challenge Richard!  I never doubted it for a second!
