Surgery date finally scheduled!

Hi all my OH friends, I just wanted to (shout out loud) tell you that I finally met with Dr Rosati today and he scheduled my surgery for April 27th! May the self I leave behind guide the self I've yet to become. I don't know whether I want to puke or sing!!!!! xxoo Amy

Amy, Congrats on getting a date! How exciting!! I am very happy for you. Dont puke now b/c you will do doing enough of that after your surgery. Take care. Tavia

Thanks Tavia! That's just what my DH said! I was so pent up though after almost three hours of one on one with the surgeon that my big ol' stomach was flippin out! Anyway, I am very excited. Hope you're doing ok. I've been reading all of your posts and sending you virtual good vibes. Hugs, Amy

Yea!!!!! Congratulations i am so happy for you! Tavia is right, no puking now you will have enough of that after,,,,,Tavia you are too funny. Amy that is awsome news... LisaMarie

Thanks LisaMarie, The funny and sad part about the puking thing is that I've always been terrified of puking! I guess I'll get over that soon enough, huh? Hugs, Amy

Hey Amy, A BIG congratulations on the surgery date. Keep me posted via email and I'll make sure that I'm at AMC on your surgery date and will keep everyone posted! You will do really ok at Albany Med! I can also have my sister check up on you for me during the day. She's a nurse there. Take care and let me know if you need anything! LindaM

Hi Linda, Do you also work at AMC? I'd love for you to swing by and say hello if you're in the neighborhood. I used to work at AMC and I know that I will get good care there. I was also really impressed with Dr Rosati. Unusual to find a surgeon who is highly skilled and a down to earth, kind fellow too. All in all a great day. Hugs, Amy

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOORAY!!! That is wonderful news, hon! I'm so happy for you. Your new birthday will be the start of a new and wonderful chapter in your life! I'm so thrilled for you!!!! HUGS, Vi P.S. Puking after surgery is NOTHING like before -- it's a lot easier Post OP and not as vile! I do it and go about my business as if nothing ever happened!

Thanks Vi, I've heard that about post surgical puking! I guess it's more the idea of throwing up that freaks me out!! Anyway, I am excited to start this new chapter in my life....also, admittedly terrified! Hugs, Amy

Hey Girl ! I am so,so HAPPY for you ! !!!! I remember when I got my date and the emotions that surfaced ! It is so exciting ! Congrats Amy ! Do me and yourself a favor though and sing, sing and sing ! No puking aloud !! and , Carol
