It seems like a reality now!!!!
Well, I had my final appt with my surgeon yesterday. Got my scripts for after surgery and a final rundown of how things will happen.. I am so excited that I cannot stand myself.. I dont know how others are dealing with me.. hee hee- not really. besides my family and a couple close friends i have been playing this one close to the chest.
I guess i kinda felt like the surgeon would change his mind..i know, i am a worry wart. i tend to do that. Was I happy to be there and be talking about all the things i needed to expect. when i left i was as giddy as a child.
now to just hurry up and wait.. ha ha ha.. just 25 days left... wwhhoooohoooo.
I totally understand where you are at...
I havent had my pre op appointment yet-thats coming tuesday--but I am giddy also! Today, I actually was looking in my fridge and was thinking I cant wait until I get paid so I can look in the fridge and it be stocked with food....then I thought to myself, wait....Ill be eating jello...nevermind!
Just curious...did your surgeon give you a list of things to take with you to the hospital? Mine refused to give me any insight of that until my preop and I am on a budget and would like to buy things early?
What kind of prescriptions did your surgeon give you? Since our surgery is so close we should keep in touch and compare nutrition info, concerns, fears...etc. Let me know if you would like a journey buddy!
Good Luck on your surgery!
Would you mind sharing with us what they had you do to prep for post op? What types of foods/meds did they suggest?
I'm excited too...the past few weeks have been bittersweet, but the time is coming up quickly! I haven't told a whole lot of people, and I work with a pretty small and tight team, they are really supportive as well. They are going to trace my outline on our chalk board...and watch it shrink.
It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning in
It knows that it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve.
It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle
when the sun comes up you'd better be running.
