Default My Last Days (on this forum)
Having filter in Tuesday 4/15 surgery on 4/21.

Bought all the "food" I'll need for next 5 weeks.

Life's good, feeling pretty positive, only one person has felt the need to tell horror tales (as a pastor I seem to get all the surgery horror stories).

Finally changing primary care physician - was waiting till after surgery but just con't tolerate one more visit.

Can't wait to get to the post-op forum.
