Best wishes for an uncomplicated textbook surgery and a quick and easy recovery...

DON'T go out and buy a lot of "diet" food thinking you'll need it. LOL I found that my tastes changed and I didn't like anything "processed" like frozen meals and SF-FF jello or pudding. I have about a million boxes of the stuff that I'm not going to touch. I've got baby food and egg beaters and all kinds of stuff to give away (the local food closet is going to love me).
Also, you'll be amazed at how little you can eat. I figured one package of instant oatmeal would last me four meals, except I still hate oatmeal so it's going to the food closet too.

Kathy, I was so nervous and scared before I had surgery. You are going to be fine. It is amazing how much better I feel since I had this done. It has been worth every time I have had a sick day or complication. Not that you will! Some just seem to breeze right through this and I'm sure you will be one of them. They will look after you close and we are all here for you. Good luck and God Bless!! Bonnie

first of all congrats on your surgery date. How exciting. And yes it is very normal to be both nervous and excited before surgery. Just do as your surgeon says and all should be ok. Congrats again on your date for Friday.

congratulations on the biggest step of the progress, the surgery. I found that my faith played a huge part on how I felt going into surgery. I did all the steps, followed all the instructions. Now it was in God's hands. I was not the least bit scared or nervous because I truly beleived that things would work out great. I felt that my sence of confidence was what helped me have such a smooth surgery. As well as knowing that my God and Lord was with my surgeon and his team the whole way. I will keep you in my prayers for a smooth and uncomplicated surgery. Try to relax and believe.
