Talking Tomorrow is Surgery day!!! YAY :D

So, since its past midnight technically its Thursday, therefore tomorrow is my surgery!
I am not sure if I will have access to the internet in the hospital or at the housing off of the hospital but when I get home I will be sure to say hello!
Well, tomorrow (or should I say TODAY?lol) will be a long day. I have an hour drive ahead of me to "Surgery City" (Wichita Falls, TX) then nutr. class at 8am then pre-admit right after than and then pre-op appointment. Then hopefully a NAP, LOL then early wake up Friday morning! Sooooo off to bed I go and I will see you losers on the losers bench!



PS. thank you all for your support, I love all of you TT members! MUAH!

Good luck with everything! Just stay strong during the first week, and remember why you had the surgery lol I'm 9 days out and I had to remind myself sometimes. I hope it's nothing short of a walk in the park for you!

I can't wait to have my life back, I know it's going to be a long haul, but I know when I'm able to play with my girls, not be in pain anymore, and my husband is able to wrap both arms around me and pick me up that it will all be worth it!
