OH MY GOD!

Just got the call a few minutes ago.............. Nurse wants me to come in this Friday for testing, and schedule me for July 10th!!!!!!!! That's 16 days away HOLY CRAP.....

I told her I need to discuss with my family to make sure if that time frame is appropriate for them as well.

Thanks!..... I just made the appointment for this Friday to have blood work, appointment with the nutrionist, and the SURGERY IS FOR JULY 10TH!


I just at my desk at work for 30 minutes, and thought about all the endless possibilities and situations that can occur with life after surgery.

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."
