Well now what do I do?

In my WLS program, I have been working closely with a nurse since about October.  Well, I have been visualizing what my surgery will entail.  I have known from the beginning that Misti, this nurse, would be at my surgery to help me.   Well the surgeon's office called me today and said I could move up my surgery date a week and a half.  Well, I hardly even batted an eyelash.  Yes please! Now at a support group meeting, I have learned that Misti, my nurse, isn't able to be there on Wednesdays which is why they usually only do this surgery on Mondays.  So now I need to decide, Do I have my surgery sooner but do it without Misti there? Or do I wait until March 31st in order to have her present? I know that in the grand scheme of things, 2 weeks isn't that long of a wait.  I also know that MIsti isn't performing the surgery.  She will just be there.  I just find it so very reassuring to have her on my side.  I am so conflicted. HELP!

If you are more comfortable with Mitzi being there, I say have her there.  If you're happy without her.... keep your new date. I'm a planner...I like things done the way I plan them.  If Mitzi was working with me this entire time, I'd make sure she was there,.... just as I envisioned it.  But then again, I'm anal like that ha ha!

You said anal.

Do you know what roll Misti plays? Will you even see her when you are there? Or will it just make you feel better to know that she is there? When I had surgery the anesthesiologist gave me something to 'calm me down' before surgery - I was already calm and protested but it was already in the IV... I zonked out and didnt even see the surgeon before I went in. I woke up in recovery post-op and thats when the surgeon came in to talk to me...

As much as u may want her there.....ur right she ISNT performing the surgery....im sure u will have plenty of people there after ur out for the support u need. Trust me they put u on drugs that u wont even know whose there with u  i would DEF take the earlier apt!!! thats awesome that u could actually get it that much quicker....i say GO FOR IT!!!!
