Surgery Date Received!!!! YAY!!!

Feb 22, 2010

Well I was not expecting to hear this at all.... Before I went on vacation, l met with the medicine internist. I was given my prescription for Vitamin D. She told me l was an excellent candidate for the surgery as l didn't have any major health issues.
The following day l received a call asking to meet with the surgeon that week. I was disappointed as l couldn't make the appointment as l was leaving the day before for Jamaica. When l returned, l called to see if there was another appointment that l could have, and the clerk had told me l was actually scheduled in that day to meet the surgical team, and if all goes well l could attend class!
So l went in and met one of the surgeon assistants and attended class. Before class started, l was told by the clerk to go up to the surgeon's office and get my surgery date. I was like "what?" couldn't believe it at first, had to ask the girl sitting beside me if l had heard correctly. Sure enough, l was given my date; MARCH 17, 2010 @11:30 AM!!!
I just have to complete one more test - endoscopy coming up Friday.
So now l am on Optifast - 4x /day and on clear fluids until surgery. It is all worth it though!
