1 more week 'til surgery!

Oct 27, 2009

Well gang, my countdown begins today!!  
 
Next Tuesday, 11/3 @ 2:30pm PST I will take the BIG JUMP and move over to the Loser's Bench. I am so excited and yet feeling some nervousness too.  I am all prayed up and trust in the Lord that things will go smoothly with surgery and recovery. I am so grateful and thankful that I have this opportunity.
 
I am trying to be as organized as possible... I have my protein, vitamins, heating pad, recliner, chapstick, baby wipes, SF popsickles, SF pudding, etc. EVERYTHING I can think of to be as comfortable as possible when I get home from the hospital. 

I just want to say THANK YOU to all of you for being so encouraging and helpful thus far in my journey. It's so wonderful to be able to come here and get information and sometimes just vent because we all have this journey in common and the ups and downs can be one heck of a roller coaster ride. Friends and family try to be understanding, but I still say that unless you have been at least 100 lbs overweight, you just can't fully understand......

With just one more week to go I tried to make sure I have everything I could need, but please feel free to give me any suggestions on things that I may need.. and any tips that helped you through recovery..

Thanks everyone!
