Hey Naomi!

I know EXACTLY what you're going through. I am a grad student and my semester doesn't end until May 21st.......my surgery though, is on April 26....I basically just took a deep breath and told myself that I could handle it. I got the surgeon note and gave it to all of my professors, they were all okay with it and have been accommodating so far...my reasoning for having the surgery now is that I need to work in the summer and I need to be fit enough and healthy enough to run around after kids all day...and I can't do that if I wait until after May 21st to get the surgery....

It was a tough decision for me to make, I did all of my pre-op tests alone, my mom will be here for about 4 days, but everything else is on me....I found that I can only really rely on myself at times, and this would be one of them....

I am taking a week off of school, and then sitting in class for 3 hours a day won't kill me....I'll be sleepy, but Im always sleepy during class

Anyhoo, enough about me...I wish you so much luck in figuring out your date! I hope it all goes well, keep us posted!!
