I am ready for the changes that lie ahead.  Today I am more nervous than excited, I guess thats normal??  The nurse called a short while ago and told me that I was first up in the morning and I have to be there at 5 AM !!  Holy Cow!  Thats early!  I was hoping I was first so I didn't have to wait half the morning so I guess this is a good thing. I am so doggone hungry.  I have been on liquid since Sat AM and no protein now for 2 days.  Yesterday I was dusting and va******* and I told my husband I was so hungry the dustballs were looking like cotton candy to me!  Yikes! Please keep us in your prayers tommorow.  My hunny is nervous also.  Thanks again for all the advice over the past several months.  This board is awesome.   Save some room on that bench, I'm almost there! Hugs to all........Susan  :)

Hi Susan. I too, was scared and nervous the day before but it is truly amazing the sense of calming that comes over you. Once you are there, you will realize that this is all you have wanted for so long and you know you are in the right hands, doing the right thing. Prayers and thoughts are with you and your family for a speedy recovery. It is definitely awesome how different you feel once it is finally done! See ya on the losers bench!
