Finally have a date

The call that I have wanted for so long and didn't think I would ever get finally came yesterday late afternoon. When I looked at the caller ID and realized it was from Dr. Bright's office I almost got sick to my stomach. Answered it and Carol, his office manager, was on the other end. She said I know you have wanted this call for so long and I am leaving for a conference tomorrow so wanted to give you the news before I left. Yes, I was approved and have my surgery date.................AUGUST 13th!!!!!! Seems so far away though I know it will go by so fast. After I hung up the phone the excitement that I had been feeling for so long gave way to fear of the unknown and the nerves that I have been pushing down during this whole pre-surgical time period. Carol also said that there may be a possibility of a July date but, she wouldn't know until the 27th so gave me the 13th of August date as a sure thing. Just wanted to share the good news with everyone. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers as my journey for a new way of life is just starting. Can't weight to join you all on the loosers bench. Keep in touch and take care.

Roller coaster isn't the word for it. I can't believe it is actually happening. Can't wait to see everyone on the looser's bench.
