Marc, Amanda, and Ceejay, good luck to you all. I visited with you and your family in the waiting room on Tuesday. My appt. was at 10:00 and yours was at 10:15. I didn't get out of that place until after 5:00! After Dr. Udobi saw me, I had to go to pre-admission where I had an EKG, had blood drawn, and spoke with the anethesiologist. Then I had to go down and get x-rays of my lungs. It was a long day. I was surprised I didn't run into you guys again in either pre-admission or x-ray. I just registered with this web site last night although I have visited and browsed through it many times. I will be updating regularly and look forward to following your progress as well. Amanda, you are young and this surgery will give you the chance to enjoy your son (and future child) to the fullest. Good luck to you all.
