 |  Surgery on Monday!
Surgery in just 3 days! I am not nervous at all, I'm so excited! Is this normal should I be scared? This is my first surgery ever, haven't been in the hospital since my kids were born (24 years ago). Maybe that's why I'm not nervous.
My surgeon is great and I have every confidence in him. I feel all that I had to do to comply for surgery; I am in good hands.
All day Sunday I am on a clear liquid diet in preparation for surgery Monday morning.
I am sure once I am home I will have lots of questions for you guys. Save me a spot on the losers bench.

Cheryl you are right and you are in good hands. I love the practice and you will do fine. Before we know it you will be posting on here next week. If you follow the same thing I did you will be home on Wednesday mid am. You have Dr. Johnson right?
I too was not nervous either. It was wierd. I think cause I was taking a step in a new direction and I knew my life was gonna be making a change for the better.
Will be thinking of you and will see you back on here soon on the losign side.

Cheryl,
I wasn't nervous, I was ready. The 5 block walk from the hotel to the hospital was a great time for reflection and eager anticipation. Hope it's the same for you.
May you have a boring recovery!!
