Three Weeks Less A Day!!

Jan 04, 2011

Yes I'm actually counting the very days!  I wake up everyday with butterflies in my stomach because I'm so nervous...or maybe it excited...I flip back and forth so often I'm not sure which I have more of!

So I've been contact by the hospital and I go this Friday for my respiratory tests...hope my cold is 100% gone by then because I've come to far to wait any longer because my breathing isn't up to par due to a silly cold.  They have also called me to confirm my information and tell me that someone will call me soon to review all my medical information and then on the Sunday afternoon before my surgery someone will also call me and tell me what time to be at the hospital the next day..this is it, its for real now!

My husband asked me if I wanted to go shopping for some new clothes and it shocked me. I immediately said how would I know what size and he told me to guess and see how close I get lol...but I think I said no more because I'm too afraid to jinx myself.

I think for the most part I am as prepared as I can be.  I've read every post on this website that I could, I've read books, I've asked questions, I've boughten some supplements, although not many because I've been told that it could be months before your body shows any type of deficiency and therefore I may not need all the supplements right away.  I've boughten some premade shakes thinking that in the first week I might be grateful not to have to prepare anything and I've boughten some protien powders so I can find something I like.  So far my favorite by far are the fruit type like peach, iced tea and pineapple.  I like the taste and you mix them with water so I'm getting fluids and protien and the same time, win win.  I tried the chocolate but wasn't too fussy for it and the vegetarian I couldn't even get to my mouth without the dry heaves starting, just the smell of that stuff was enough to make a person not want to eat!

I'm hoping that I feel well enough to post on here right after surgery because I think this is a cool place to have some type of diary/log of my journey.
