preop today, surgery tomorrow
Hello all,
It's just after midnight here in Fairbanks Alaska and I can't sleep. I fly at noon today (Wednesday) for my preop in Anchorage and my RNY surgery will be Thursday!!!!
I'm really excited and a little anxious. I haven't bought anything to drink for the postop phase but will pick up some stuff after my preop appointment today to have ready in my hotel room for when I am discharged from the hospital. I have to stay in Anchorage for 7-10 days to see my surgeon prior to flying home.
I've picked up a little cough......hopefully gone by tomorrow, don't need any pulmonary problems.
Well I better go pack........somebody say some prayers for me![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/_shared/images/smiley/msn/smile.gif)

Denise, I am keeping you in prayers as is the rest of the "family". It won't be long now and your seat on the losers bench is going to be filled my no one but YOU!
My prayer is that you have a safe and uneventful surgery, a speedy and pain free recovery and that God gives the doctors and medical staff knowledge, compassion and wisdom.

Denise,
Prayers and positive healing thoughts go out to you as you are about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. . .
You will need clear liquids, chicken broth, sugar free jello, decafinated tea, peppermint was very soothing and gave the tastebuds a lift.
Best wishes, will be looking for you to post when you get back!
Hugs, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen
