Almost there...

Feb 10, 2012

Well, I had my 2 week pre-op orientation this morning, it lasted about 3hrs and went through all the paperwork, nutritional instructions. I am really starting to believe this is happening. Got my 2 week special diet which I will be starting tomorrow. I also found out that i have gained 17lbs since I saw the surgeon in December, so they definitely want to see that reversed with the special diet in the next 2 weeks.

Also found out that I will have a private room, which is a HUGE deal for me... I am sooo happy that I don't have to share a room with a stroke patient....lol. When I had my gull bladder removed a few years back, I had to share a room with this 90 year old guy who had a nurse giving him an enema in the bathroom right next to my bed.... not cool!

To be honest I have such mixed emotions right now, excitement is the biggest one, but it is going to be such a life changing event for me, I am definitely dealing with apprehensions too.
