Wow! All of a sudden I have only 42 hours left to wait until my surgery! It felt like it would never get here...and now it's almost time to pack and get ready to go! I have been stressing out because I have had to deal with so many sick people at work this week...I ended up wearing a mask a lot..some people thought I was overdoing it..but this morning I woke up with a bit of a scratchy throat!! I hope I don't have to be rescheduled...I have already done this 2 week liquid fast and HATE the thought of having to start over! I am just drinking lots of fluids and resting and hoping I have just psyched my crazy self into this! (I feel fine otherwise)..I need your good thoughts! Thanks!

I am counting the hours too and starting to make a list of the items I want to bring with me to the hospital. I have to admit that I have been terrified of getting sick too. My husband had a cold last week and I wouldn't let him get near me, no hugs or kisses. I am fearful of not only having to reschedule the surgery, but also of coughing post-operatively. I am sending healthy thoughts your way. I have loaded up on vitamen C, might not be a bad idea.

Stay positive. That's been proven to help your immune system. Soon the surgery will be over and you will be so relieved and happy on your way to your goals.

Thanks,everybody...and good luck to you too, Joanne. My hubby is out in the garage getting me some earplugs now! Great idea! I am really calm about the surgery. Maybe tomorrow I will be different, but right now I am just happy and looking forward to the future!

What time are you scheduled to be at the hospital? I'm sceduled for Monday as well, have to be there at 6:30AM ET/surgery is at 8:30AM ET. I've been doing laundry, got my vitamins all ready for the month, and packed my bag. Still have to put my laptop/iPad in there (along with assorted cords) but I'm pretty much done.

STAY WELL, keep taking the vit C and take some Airborne as well between now and Mon. Drink chicken broth too.It can't hurt. And gargle with sal****er.

I have to be there at 8:30..actually, was scheduled for a later OR slot, but Thursday got a call changing my time to 10:30 OR instead of 1:30...so that is good...less time to get nervous in the morning!
