The Date is set!!
Nov 11, 2010
Well I have a date set for surgery, Dec. 8th 2010, at 11am. I cannot beleive what has happened since I last wrote. I tore my menicus on Aug. 29, went to emergency, then had to make an appointment for that. In the mean time I got a call that I had to have another mamogram. So I had that, and then I was told I had to have a needle biopsey. Thank the Lord above all was well with that. So before I had that I had to have a MRI on my knee. Of course it takes weeks for all that. Then I had to have the surgery on my knee. Now I am recoverying from the surgery with PT and water areobics. And two days ago I got the call that all the tests were in and good and that I was elidgible for the surgery. I could not beleive that it was so soon, I was thinking maybe the end of December. The great liver shrinking diet starts on Thanksgiving day. Aint that a hoot lol. But I have had enough turkey and dressing in my life to feed an army.So now guess what, I am scared to death. Will I be the one to die on the table? Will I be sick and pukky after the surgery and make everyones life in the house meserable? Will I be the one person who does not lose an ounce of weight?
My dear husband is my biggest supporter. He is a peach. When I first told him I was considering this WLS, I was so surprised at his reaction. One of excitment, he truly means it from the health side. We have only been married for 2 1/2 years, still on the honeymoon lol.
So the journey begins. I am looking at doing this exactly as the doctors say. I hate to throw up, I would rather have a headach then a belly ach, so I will do whatever it takes to not have those. With the help of God and my husband and my family, I will do fine. (I say that outloud, but inside I am FREAKING OUT ,lol)
