Got my new date

Wow, that's a pretty hard way to get your surgery cancelled too.  Can't imagine that either.  I just hope this next month passes pretty quick.  Seems like waiting is one of the hardest parts.

that is a shame for you, I hope they can move your date up for you, such a dissapointment
Good Luck

Thanks.  I wish they could too, but they were pretty sure they had no earlier openings.

Wow what an ordeal for you!!!  Bless your heart but like others have said, this stuff happens for a reason, firm believer in that.  God didn't intend for you to have that surgery today.  At least that is what my belief would be, not to push my beliefs on you :-)  I hope you have come to peace with it and so happy you have a new date ahead of you.  We won't be far from each other, mine is april 28th!

Well I hope they keep April 21st as the date and not the end of May!

Melissa, I have been thinking about you today.  I have no idea what I would have done in your situation.  It's ok to feel what you feel, of course it's gonna hurt emotionally for a bit.

If you keep your Apr 21 date you will just  be a couple of days after me

Melissa-
You might also ask if they keep a stand-by list in case of cancellations.  I am just so sorry you are having to go through this.  But, chin up girl, you will get your surgery soon.

I did ask them to notify me of any cancellations, but not holding my breath.  Thanks for the encouraging words.

Melissa - I think its perfectly normal to cry over this - you were ready to start anew and the PS is a big event and you were all hyped up.  Grieve it girl, let it out so you're not stuck there.

I'm sorry they can't squeeze you in sooner, but I agree - tell coworkers it was a scheduling glitch in the end and let it be at that.  Now as for April, well, keep calling them and making sure it doesn't change...and I agree if they have a cancellations list, get out it!

Hope things get better.

I'm hoping I got most of it out of my system.  I haven't slept well in days in preparation for the surgery.  The night before surgery I only slept maybe 2 hours.  Last night I slept like a rock.  I was just  physically and emotionally drained.  I do feel a little better today.  I'll be back to work tomorrow so at least I can get back to my routine.  Thanks
