Good luck, Karla!! I hope you have a perfect surgery and a boring recovery!! You'll have a few questions as you recover, and this is the best place online to ask them.

WELCOME!! Glad you are here!
I am sure your surgery will go smooth and you will have a speedy recovery.
Stay positive and focus on the new future ahead of you.
This surgery is a life changer indeed. It was the BEST thing I have ever done for myself! I would do it a million times over.

Thank you all so much. Wow what a nice group of folks. Yes my bff is coming to town tonight to stay for a week and my mom is coming the day of my surgery to stay for 2 nights while I am in the hospital to help with the kiddos. My husband has 2 weeks of leave as well so I am covered! Now, the clear liquid diet has officially commenced. This is. The countdown is on. I have butterflies, but I am so excited and thankful that military insurance is paying for this. Good for them!
