Default April 28th Surgery

I am so excited...I have my date! April 28th is going to be my new birthday! lol I really don't think it has all hit me yet. I've been pursing this for just about a year...appointment after appointment...test after test. I'm sure the night before I'm going to be wacking out but as of right now it almost seems sureal.

Just thought I'd share...have a great day everyone!
