Surgery Day

Mar 21, 2011

Today is the day.  I have to be at the hospital in 4 hours   

Had quite the hectic day at work trying to wrap things up & pass things off.  Took much longer than I wanted but it is done for a while.  Boss & coworkers are being supportive.  They know I am having surgery.  That's all I told them.  They don't know it's WLS.  My preference.

I told my daughter this weekend.  We went away for her birthday (told her after her birthday).  She took it as well as a 13 year old could.  Tonight she was so sweet.  When I was tucking her into bed she asked, "mommy, are you nervous?".  I told her no.  She asked "why not?".  I told her because I have faith, trust & belief in my doctors and in God.   She then told me she was nervous enough for the both of us.  She was cute.  She fell asleep quickly.  I'm worried about her waking up in the morning and me not being here.  My parents are here and I know she will be fine.  I always worry about her.

Looking forward to change.  Looking forward to doing things I haven't been able to.  Looking forward to a good recovery.  Looking forward to a new lifestyle.

Tomorrow I tell family the real reason for surgery.  i figure I can handle their questions or negativity they may have better under the influence of medication!!  That's my plan and I'm sticking to it....hahaha.  I sense some will be negative.  That is their issue.  I am doing this for myself.  I am doing this for my daughter.  Period.  That's all. 

It's My Life.....

And yes, I have my ipod all set, my kindle all set.   Nice relaxing pre-op and post-op.  Let's see if I accomplish this!

More to come in a few days. 

Curious.....does anyone see this?  I've been on here for a while.  No comments.  No support.  No OH love???  What am I missing????
