January Surgery Date!!!

January 23!!! I cant believe it. I have a date. It doesn't seem real. I still feel like it is not true. I had my pre-op visit today. The blood gasses test wasn't all that bad. Yea, it hurt... but nothing so horrible. I just looked out the window and prayed. God really does answer prayers. Funny thing, I feel more calm now that I have a date than I did before not knowing. Praise the Lord! - CMP

Aww, Honey, that is wonderful...You are really moving right along. My first office visit was in April and I just had the surgery on Friday....I had to have open and things were fine. God will take care of you for sure. He sure did me. Having a date is a comfort, I know. Hugs to ya. Betsy

Thank you Betsy, I am keeping you in my prayers. Having an open is a one of the things that scares me. I have been reading the posts and keeping up with most of you here on the VA board. You all have been an inspiration to me. hugs back to you! CMP
