Just Around the Corner!

Jun 16, 2009

So I am starting to really freak out.  My surgery is scheduled for June 25th 2009 at 8am.  I did pre-op testing last Friday and I will be attending my nutrition class in 2 days.  At this point I am being impatient and anxious at the same time.   On one hand I wish that my surgery was NOW!  On the other hand I keep thinking I only have 8 days, that is too soon.  I guess I feel blessed because my doc does not require the pre-op diet that I have seen a lot of other people go through.  Not that I dont think that I will have very strict guidlines to follow afterward, I just would like to have some last good byes with some good friends.  Like a nice roll with real butter, a piece of fruit pie (not the whole thing) and a good NY strip steak. 

I went with my husband this past weekend to visit my in laws and pick up my step-daughter.  I had told my mother-in-law when I had decided to have the surgery and she informed me that she was having it as well.  So this weekend we were comparing food stories and I was able to share with her her "last supper" as her surgery is scheduled for June 17th.  Yes, tomorrow.  I now feel like I am in some sort of competition.  That may not really be a bad thing.  Please understand that my mother-in-law is not old enough to be my mother so it should be a good competition.  I do wish her luck.  TTFN
