Default Today's the Day

Just wanted to let everyone know that by the time most of you read this, I will either be in surgery or in recovery. If I can just get past the IV I will be fine. Not freaking out too bad yet (tonight) but morning will bring on a whole new anxiety. I am looking forward to being on the losing side shortly. Gosh, this all feels so unreal, like a dream. I can't believe that it is really happening.
Thanks for all the support guys, I really appreciate everything.

Will report back soon
Tracy
