TOday is the day.  Four Hours and fifty minutes till I meet my new surgeon. I hope I like him. I hope he likes me. and I PRAY that he gives me a surgery date. I need a date. I NEED something to look forward to in this journey after having one disappointment after another. everyone I know it is a little unorthodox but PLEASE pray for me that this goes well. I'm in this for the long haul, no turning back, and if I'm in it with him I want it to be a good thing not like the last one.

I know you have been through the wringer but don't get your feelings hurt if he doesn't give you a date today.  I don't know anyone who got a date on their first visit, no matter where they were in the process.  I do hope you two get a long and he offers something positive to keep you up.  Let us know how it goes.

Good luck today.  Don't be disappointed if you don't get a date today, he will probably have to file his paperwork and wait on approval for him to do the surgery.
