I met with the Nutrionist today, It was a very informative meeting. I'll meet with her again 1 month post-op. This was the last prerequisite prior to my approval, now my paperwork can be submitted approval. I hope I get a surgery date soon.

The paperwork has been sent in to my medical group. I'm told that there is usually a 3 day turnaround! YIPPEE!!. I have a tentative date of 3/22/05. Oh boy is this really happening? It's kind of frightening!

I've told most of my friends and family that I will be having this surgery. It's taken me a while to decide to tell people. I'm not making a big announcement out of it, I'm telling people that I think should know, when I see them. I told my Boss last week so that we could start planning on me being off for a while.
I've been contimplating whether I should send out a broadcast e-mail to friends and relatives that I don't see often. I don't think I will. The next time that they see me, they won't recognize me. I do like surprises and that would be a big surprise.
