Hey Christine, its so great to get notes from other people who have had this done. I am so excited that my surgery is only 3 weeks away, I am also a member of the church her in southern maryland, I am the young womens beehive advisor but soon will be with the laurels. I am really kinda nervous about the surgery itself, I hope I am not in a lot of pain after. I just made my preop appts today things are moving so fast for me now. Good luck and I hope you have great news from the Dr on tuesday, I will be waiting...Nicole
