Well, I thought I was going to get 20 days off but looks like I did not have enough PTO. So I am going back to work after 15 days. I can do light duty but I will still have to do walking and driving, just no lifting. Prolly bending over my patients though at times. I can sit down in their rooms though. I cannot afford to take a week without pay. =/

I think I can do it. I can see about 4 to 5 patients in about 2-3 hours then go home. My mother said she would drive me around for the first few days if I need it. A woman has to do what a woman has to do. 

Tomorrow is pre-op, nutritional class and registration. Wednesday is surgery. So anxious. Wish me luck! I cannot wait to see you guys and gals on the other side.

You should be able to do it; but be prepared to be exhausted those first few weeks back.

You gotta do what you gotta do!

I'll  be thinking of you and wishing you the very best. Just remember that each day gets better. Sounds like you  have a good support system with your mom there. Be prepared to get lots of rest once your home!

Take care

I am standing in the gap and sending prayers your way!  My revision surgery is May 14th and I am a ball of nerves already! So I know you must be having a lot of feelings and emotions right now. I'm excited for you! Hang in there!
