I'm Off....
Wishing you all the best an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery!
I can't wait to hear how everything went for you.
Hugs,
I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.

I am so sorry you have been bumped. That is a risk for surgeries that are scheduled later in the day. Try to stay focused on how happy you will be when it is over. The preheated, toasty blankets they put on you in the OR are the best! Since you are usually knocked out quickly, you only get a short while to enjoy that part - lol!
By the way, I had my surgery at GBMC too. Since you are starting late, the volunteer that works the info desk in the surgery waiting room may leave for the day before your surgery is over. That is going to make the wait even more nerve wracking for your family. It was for mine. Sometimes the surgery runs a little longer than orignally planned. But that just means they are taking the time to ensure the best outcome for you. Someone will come out to talk to your family after you are done. In my case the surgeon did.
