Well here begins my journal.  I have 11 days to go before surgery only nine till the lovely bowel prep and liquid diet.  So looking forward to that.   Through the whole waiting to get approved process I was constantly wondering and worrying will it happen what else could they possibly want me to do that I haven't done already. Then the magic phone call came saying yes your approved and wham a flood of emotions poured out of me I was crying happy tears.  After that day though a calmness just took over and and a weight was lifted and a peacefulness settled over me.  Then a couple of days later wam more paperwork, appointments, pre-op tests and  phone calls bam bam bam back on the busy rollercoster that had been the last 6 months.  But definitely for a good reason we had a date July 6th 2009 to look forward to  so a smile has been on my face.
I have been pretty busy this last month.  Meetings and appointments.  Getting everything ready at home, shopping for my pre and post diet, wading through all of the information about the supplements needed and ordering them. Now here I am 11 days to go and it is sinking in that this is finally going to happen not just a hope and dream anymore it is really happening.  It is so exciting and sobering at the same time.  There are so many changes that come with this and trying to learn them all at once is quite a task, but, I am up for the challenge and the prospect of a healthier happier life is a great incentive.
