The big Day is HERE!
Mar 24, 2009
Finally! Its here! Tomorrow I get my band! Its been a busy last few days, getting in to the surgeon's office for a quick weigh in after the two week pre-op....my first 11 lbs down and into a new "decade"! Last minute haggeling with the hospital about how much is due up front.....and they finally listened to me and how my plan works (medical plan, HRA and FSA....who knew!?) Good lord, I work for my insurance company and I answer these kinds of questions day in and day out so yes, I am giving you correct information.My father is here to take care of my son....
I cried, no bawled!!!! my eyes out at lunch with my parents and brother....I wont ever get to enjoy a hot, huge slice of freshly baked bread dripping with butter again! Of course, they dont understand (in my self indulgent mind) what it means to be one way one moment, and then ZAP....different when you wake up the next.
After running around all day getting last minute things done so my father and son will survive 24 hours without me, I am finally resting. However, my tummy is moving a hundred miles a minute .....hopefully, its just from nerves. (calm on the outside, a bundle of butterflies on the inside).
I just pray that I will be a positive statistic tomorrow and come through this like a breeze. My GB surgery a few years ago was no biggy and it was done somewhat as an emergency ( admit through ER, surgery the next day) so this should be a no-brainer, right?
My one regret? My best friend in Ohio has no clue I am doing this....we havent spoken in almost a year and I would really love to have her here with me right now. Then my world would be right.
C'est la vie....
