Well it is finally here, my new life. I cannot believe that it is really going to happen. The wait has been long but will be well worth any amount of time that it would have taken to get here. I started my bowel prep yesterday and man oh man - lets just say it is not a pretty sight. Have to do it again today but there cannot be anything left in me. I really have not felt too hungry being on only liquids. I have everything in order with work and the house. I am not nervous or scared just ready. Have been preparing for this long enough. The only thing that is uncertain is the "unknown" of how I am going to feel etc. since every person is different in their recovery. I will be of wor****il October 8th. The doctor's office will call me today after 2:00 to let me know what time to arrive at the hospital tomorrow. I am supposed to be the second case so I am thinking that my surgery will be 11-12 ish. Thanks to everyone on OH!! I don't know what I would do without this tool and these people everyday. Love ya'll and see ya on the other side.

Congrats Dear, I was so psyched and ready. By the second day of the nasty bowel prep I was weak. Had to drink Gatorade for strength. I was ready as you were. I am a wimp when it comes to needles and anything of the like. I showed up for that ready and waiting. You seem to have prepared yourself. A positive attitude will help you so much. I was in a chair an hour , though I had to be told about it because of the drugs. Stroll that little hallway as much as you can. You are gonna do great! Will be praying for you. Shannon
