I am so excited to finally be here ready for surgery. I am not afraid I am thrilled and praying time goes by quickly!!!!! I am moving this weekend so packing this week and unpacking next week, that will get me closer to my surgery date quicker. But then I'm afraid time is going to slow to a crawl as I wait for my surgery. I have been struggling with my past surgeon for a year now to get this surgery and I'm terrified something else is going to go wrong with my new surgeon. BUT even if I had to start over, I am Happy with my decision to get a new surgeon. I really like him and his staff. Soooo 20 days and counting :D

Congrats on your projected date. . .  the time leading up to that is exciting and nerve-wracking for sure, but it's unlikely you will regret it and good for you for persevering to find a new surgeon.

Best wishes, Laureen

Best of luck! I remember going to a pre-op support group meeting and asking the facilitator what the most difficult part of the journey was. 

She said, "The part you are doing right now." And indeed, pre-op is a challenge! Just hang in there and know that every day is one day closer!
