Thanks - yes I am aware that you never really know who your surgeon is/was until you wake up...lol I guess it's the nature of the game :)

You will definitely meet your surgeon just before they take you down. You are in good hands at TWH. My experience there was great except for the food service ... make sure you check your food tray before you eat anything ... they kept bringing me stuff I could not have and the poor nurses had to scrounge around to find me stuff ... never did get one correct tray the whole two days I was there. But everyone else at the hospital was amazing, especially the nurses. They gave me great advice. So excited for you!

Thanks for the tip! I will make sure I have a good look at that tray! I am so excited - less than a month - it will be here before I know it
