Education Class

Sep 01, 2011

So today was the education class and for me it was almost a waste of time, but in a good way. I have had the "bible" for a long time now (THANKS FOR THOSE WHO POSTED IT ON THIS SITE) so iv read it front to back nourmous times. I dcid meet a women there who was nice, she sat right beside and me I asked her if she was on here and she said yes but hadnt been in a while, anyhow I gave her my phone number and my username if she wanted to come back here and look around. I also got to thank the nurse who was the one at my nut/nurse meeting that told me to quit smoking and I actually did! I know she didnt remember me but I remembered her and I was glad I got to say Thanks for helping me to get healthier. Also I picked up prescriptions today from my pharmacy here in town and can you freaking believe it I only had to pay $63 for everything!!! Without my drug plan it would have cost me $317!!! Im very thankful I live in a country where we dont have to pay for our medications! Thats it for now, talk soon HOPEFULLY I'll report a SURGERY DATE next.

Met the Surgeon

Aug 24, 2011

Well today finally came! It felt like forever...but I was super happy about how it went. I met with a "fellow" and for the life of me I cant remember his name....I read his card just to report to you what it was and now its gone....anyhow not important. He went through the whole surgery and then had me sign the forms that said it was ok to preceed. OH MY and then Dr. Gmora walked in....im in love..what a hottie and so super nice! He said everything is great and that he made me swear swear swear to go to every follow up appointment they give me and that if I have any issues at all to skip going to my hospital but to rush over to his. He assured me that there is such a minimal chance something will even go wrong to worry but not to worry about it.  He gave me my scripts and my optifast order, I was surprised that he gave me 3 weeks of it. I went and got that at their pharmacy in the building but took my script back home to my normal pharmacy. They said I have to attend the info class on Sept 1st at 1:30pm and that Krsita will call me when they can book me in. Not sure what surgeon yet because he said it just depends on which one of the three has an opening first. I told him I wanted him....and I do.....lol hes so cute. Anyhow it was quick, I got in within 5 min, didnt even get a chance to look over the form I was asked to sign before getting called in. The appointment itself only took about 25 min so that was good. Thats all for now, hope this helps.

Aug 24th 2011~Surgeons Apppointment

Aug 20, 2011

Ok so I dont know how I missed  updating my blog but a continuation of my last post about calling Krsita and waiting waiting waiting well that day SHE CALLED!! I meet the surgeon on Aug 24th 2011 @ 11am!!!!! Holy shit I couldnt be more excited if it was my actual surgery day.......ok well maybe. Anyhow im trilled! If really does feel like iv been waiting so long, and im so proud of myself for what iv done so far, if I wanted it this badly to quit everything I have I cant wait till they give me a new chance at life to see what I can do with it. I have been walking around on cloud 9 since hearing the message from Krsita. I am in such a better mood and let me tell ya my husband is extreamly thankful lol Holy hell I wanna a surgery date so badly on Wednesday.....I know I know I should't  get my hopes up but the thoughts already there so, well now, what do I do but hope lol. I cant say i'm 100% ready I mean my husband is going to take a week off to help me my first week and hopefully it will be a speeding recovery.My poor work place has no idea whats going on with me so because we do our schedules a month in advance i have a feeling im going to kinda screw them over a bit.....oh well...lol....maybe I can give them an advance warning...i dont know lol Anyhow thats all for now, NOTHING can ruin this week for me, im so happy and excited to be moving forward, even if I dont get a date Wednesday at least I know im one step closer to the finished product. SO HAPPY

Called Krista a 3rd time, today.....

Aug 16, 2011

Well today marks 15 weeks smoke, alcohol and caffine free so I thought id try to call Krista and see what happends. I left her a message saying exactly this:

Hi Krista, Its Jessie Butler calling, I just wanted you to know im 15 weeks Smoke, alcohol and caffine free as of today. Im waiting to hear when I can start making more appointments as I think I only have 2-3 left. I was instructed to start calling around 4 months so here I am..I know your busy can you please call me back so I know my file hasnt gone missing or forgotten about.
Thanks

I know thats what I said because I typed it out like 20 times before I was happy with what I was going to say. AGH!! This sucks right now I HATE WAITING!! I'v never been one for waiting, I'm seriously extreamly spoiled and I usually dont have to wait long for anything I want.  If anything I guess i'm learning patience....

Depressed :(

Jul 28, 2011

Agh this waiting is killing me! Iv been avoiding this site and doing my Youtube videos cause really I have nothing else to say... I have been thinking about anything but the surgery. Altho as of a few days ago people are asking me whats going on for Aug, Sept and even had someone ask me what I was doing on a day in October!  I dont want to get my hopes up with telling people ill be having it sooner rather then later but I am really hoping my 4 month mark as a non smoker will be enough for the clinic to cut me some slack.....I honestly cant believe i'm a week from  being a non smoke for 4 months! Its been so long since I quit for this amount of time, i'm very proud of myself and hope to never get caught up in that lifestyle again, watching someone I love who was never a smoker go thru cancer and lose is more motivation then I needed but it did help.....ALOT. I'll be calling the office in a weeks time to inform them I will be smoke free for 4 months and I hope I hear back from them this time. I feel like my life is on the PAUSE button and I cant play it until I know what is going on, seems like its just dragging on and on and on. Im so super happy for my friends on here and their sucess and getting their dates is so great and I am really am delighted to hear when someone I know has gotten their date, at the moment tho im needing to be a bit selfish and just take some time off from obsessivly thinking about this.
