I can't believe it! I'm not even nervous.

This morning I went in to the hospital so they could take another boatload of blood and I have to be back (Wellstar Kennestone in Marietta, GA) tomorrow at 7:30. Dr. Fritz Jean-Pierre will be doing the surgery and I am SO EXCITED!!!  My plan is as soon as my head is clear I'll be on my feet walking the halls cause I had a C-section (30 years ago) and I know how incredibly horrible gas pains can be. 

I'm bringing a SANTA HAT to wear so I can hide the BED HEAD hair that I get.

This morning my niece took all my measurements and a few "before" pictures. In the pics I'm wearing a workout bra and Lycra shorts that might have fit me 70 pounds ago. The pictures are positively hideous and I hope my niece doesn't have nightmares tonight after seeing me.

I'm meeting up with my girlfriends at 6:00 tonight so they can gather 'round me and PRAY!!  (I have the best friends ever.)

I ask that YOU pray for me as well as Dr. Fritz!

Chris
