My surgery has been approved and it shall happen Monday the 23rd.  I am going through all sorts of emotions right now.  I am excited, nervous, happy a little am I doing the right thing feeling.  I have been reading the boards trying to make sure I am understanding everything, and I hope so.  I have learned a lot and know there is so much more to learn.  This will be open and I am sure there will be more pain then I have had before, but I am making this a mind over matter.  The sooner I can get up and walk the less pain I shall be in.  Thanks for listening to me ramble.  I just needed to put this out there to others who understand.  No response is needed I just needed to talk to someone other then myself lol.

Congrats on the approval!  I felt the same way.  It may not be super easy immediately after surgery, but it does get better day by day.

Congratulations to you! The feeling of approval is amazing. Cheri****

Those feelings are quite normal. I believe we have all been through them at that time.

The 23rd is so close! You better fasten that seatbelt. It's going to be one hell of a ride. Once again, congrats!
