I had my final pre-op appointments today - nutritionist, surgeon, nurse, EKG, blood labs, etc. I'm clear for landing... er, surgery, that is!!! I will only have to do the liquid diet 24 hours prior to surgery, so that's cool! I'm very excited and can't wait for March 30 to get here. Yaaaaaaaay!

Thank you! I can't believe there's just 5 1/2 days left to surgery! I'm still in denial! It won't be real until we make the drive to the hospital Tuesday morning... and then I'll be cringing scared and excited all at the same time! I'm a surgery virgin, so even though I've completely overprepared myself with information, I still feel completely unprepared for the experience.

I finished up my pre-admit stuff on Monday. :-) You'll do fine. I'll be thinking about you. My furbabies are rotation-ready. LOL

Paula! I can't believe your surgery is next week!! Can you believe how far away it seemed when we first met at Lunch Bunch? So happy for you. Take care, and keep us posted on your progress.

Thank you! I will definitely keep you up-to-date on the surgery. I asked Steve615 to be my angel at the last lunch bunch. So he will post to everyone when the deed is done! I'm planning to attend the Vanderbilt support group one last time tonight as a pre-op! I'm very excited still and will probably not start getting nervous about it all until Monday. I'm going to buy a new scale this weekend and take some "before" shots to post. It's all going so fast!
