It took me a few hours to get my feet on the floor. I will talk to them today about the date. Thanks to everyone for being here to share that moment with me.

BTW.....They want to schedule my surgery for the 18th of this month. My question to you is what about the smoking thing? Yesterday was the first day that I went all day without smoking. For the past 2 weeks I've only smoked 3-4 a day. If I dont smoke from now until my preop date next week will I pass the urine nicotine test? Do you think I should just schedule my surgery for September? What do you guys think?
