12 hours...

Well, it's here! Surgery day is at 10:25 a.m. on 4/27/07. I have now lost 49lbs. Anxious and mortified about the Foley...but I will survive.

Don't worry about the foley, You'll be sleeping and not even know when they put it in. Good luck tomorrow, will someone be posting for you? I know you'll do great. Hey, good job on the 49 pounds!! hugs Linda

Good Luck to you Mark....you are in good hands. Hope someone will let us know. And don't worry about the foley....not bad at all. Don't get yourself all worked up over it. I know I did about the leak test....but wasn't anything I should have worried about.

Will be thinking of you and sending you wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery. Everyone move down so Mark can join our Loser's bench.

Good Luck Mark! I will be keeping you in my thoughts that all goes well and you have a safe and speedy recovery! Shawn M.

Congrats Mark!!! Will be thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers....Hope everything goes well and you have a speedy recovery!!! Hugs Judy

Good luck tomorrow and I am not a man, but believe me tomorrow when you wake up it will be the last thing that you will be worrying about! You will be glad not to have to worry about getting to the bathroom right away! You will do great, remember to follow the pouch rules after surgery and walk, walk, walk! Wendy
