It was an approval letter and I have a date
Apr 12, 2010
I just scheduled my surgery. May 11Th. The day before my oldest boy turns 18. I expected the news of approval and ensuing surgery to make me feel really happy and excited! I feel nervous and it all feels a bit surreal. I didn't expect that 'balloon and confetti' feeling but I thought I feel a bit more excited than scared. I am committed to this. I want to be free of my 11 medications and I want to feel more free,not so surrounded by myself.I'm grateful that support group meets tonight, I sure could use some. Of course what normal person would be excited about having their digestive system re-routed!It's the changes I am looking forward to. So here I am, one month away from my re-birth. Hey, I think I just felt a teeny glimmer of hope and excitement. Love to blog...it helps with my perspective.
