Just Under 59 Hours To Go...

Monday afternoon I'll be having my RNY surgery at Barix. I'm excited and nervous, feeling confident and totally unsure of myself. lol. I'm trying to focus on gathering up the things I'll want / need for my time in the hospital (iPod loaded with music, tv shows and a movie), a book and some magazines, comfy go-home clothes, etc... the idea is to keep my mind off counting the hours, but here i am... counting the hours... the good news is that for the first time in a decade i feel hopeful about the future... it won't be any easy road, i know, but i look around here and see all the success and know i can do it too... it's a fresh start and i can't wait to be more active, to travel again, to shop in "normal people" stores... i just hope i don't get my hopes up for better results than i'll get...

Well good luck to you on Mon...and make sure you take your chap stick....I remember how happy and excited I was and you know what this surgery is a wonderful tool....so hang on for the ride...I know you will do great....We are keeping the bench warm for ya....

So happy for you.  This is such an exciting time for you, but just remember to take deep breaths and enjoy the ride.

best of luck, you are in great hands.  The staff is wonderful.  Use your pain pump, walk walk walk and enjoy that first popsicle.  It will be the best thing you have ever tasted. Pam
